Eternal Father strong to save
Whose arm has bound the restless wave
Who bids the mighty ocean deep
It's own appointed limits keep
O hear us when we cry to Thee
For those in Peril on the sea

Oh Christ whose voice the waters heard
And hushed their raging at Thy word
Who walkest on the foamy deep
And how amidst the storm did sleep
O hear us when we cry to Thee
For those in Peril on the sea

[alternate lyrics]
Eternal Father strong to save 
Whose arm has bound the restless wave, 
Who bids the mighty ocean deep 
It's own appointed limits keep, 
O hear us when we cry to Thee 
For those in Peril on the sea. 

Oh Christ, the Lord of hill and plain, 
O'er which our traffic runs amain. 
By mountain pass or valley low, 
Wherever, Lord our 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. 
Oh 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 wheresoe'er they go. 
That evermore shall rise to Thee, 
Glad praise from air and land and sea
