Eternal Father, strong to save

Author: William Whiting (1825-1878) Hymnal: CH4 #260a (2005) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Eternal Father, strong to save, whose arm hath bound the restless wave, who bade the mighty ocean deep its own appointed limits keep: O hear us when we cry to thee for those in peril on the sea. 2 O Christ, whose voice the waters heard and hushed their raging at thy word, who walked upon the foaming deep, and calm amid the storm didst sleep: Oh, hear us when we cry to thee for those in peril on the sea. 3 O Holy Spirit, who didst brood upon the waters dark and rude, who bid there angry tumult cease, and give, for wild confusion peace: Oh, hear us when we cry to thee for those in peril on the sea. 4 O Trinity of love and power, shield all of them in danger's hour; from rock and tempest, fire and foe, protect them whereso'er they go: thus evermore shall rise to thee glad hymns of praise from land and sea.
