Eternal Father, strong to save, Whose arm hath bound the restless wave,
Who bidd'st the mighty ocean deep its own appointed limits keep;
O hear us when we cry to Thee for those in peril on the sea.

 O Christ, Whose voice the waters heard and hush'd their raging at Thy word,
Who walkedst on the foaming deep, and calm amid the storm didst sleep;
O hear us when we cry to Thee for those in peril on the sea.

O Holy Spirit, Who didst brood upon the waters dark and rude,
And bid their angry tumult cease, and give, for wild confusion, peace;
O hear us when we cry to Thee for those in peril on the sea.

O Trinity of love and power, our brethren shield in danger's hour;
From rock and tempest, fire and foe, protect them wheresoe'er they go;
Thus evermore shall rise to Thee glad hymns of praise from land and sea.
