Almighty 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, the Lord of hill and plain O'er which our traffic runs amain
By mountain pass or valley low; Wherever, Lord, thy brethren go,
Protect them by thy guarding hand From every peril on the land.
O Spirit, whom the Father sent To spread abroad the firmament;
O Wind of heaven, by thy might Save all who dare the eagle's flight,
And keep them by thy watchful care From every peril in the air.
O Trinity of love and power, Our brethren shield in danger's hour;
From rock and tempest, fire and foe, Protect them whereso'er they go,
Thus evermore shall rise to thee Glad praise from air and land and sea.
