RCCG Hymn 809
Eternal Father, Strong to Save
"They that do business in great water, may see the works of the Lord, and His wonders in the deep." - Ps 137:23 & 24
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 of the sea!
O Saviour, whose almighty word The winds and waves submissive heard, Who walked'st on the foaming deep, And calm amid its rage didst sleep: O hear us when we cry to Thee For those in peril of the sea!
O Sacred Spirit, who didst brood Upon the chaos dark and rude, Who bad'st its angry tumult cease, And gavest light, and life, and peace O hear us when we cry to Thee For those in peril of the sea!
O Trinity of love and pow'r Our brethren shield in danger's hour; From rock and tempest, fire and foe, Protect them wheresoe'er they go; And ever let there rise to Thee, Glad hymns of praise from land and sea.
