O God Creator, in Whose Hand

Representative Text

1. O God Creator, in whose hand
The rolling planets lie,
Give skill to those who now command
The ships that brave the sky.

2. Strong Spirit, burning with mankind
On missions high to dare,
Safe pilot all who seek to find
Their haven thro’ the air.

3. Calm Christ, courageous in Thy quest,
Whose light led men afar,
Illume their pathways with Thy blest
And peaceful natal star.

4. Enfolding Life, bear on Thy wing
Thro’ storm and dark and sun,
The men in air who closer bring
The nations into one.
