Military Wives - Eternal Father lyrics

Eternal Father, strong to save Whose arm does bind the restless wave Who bids 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 Savior, whose almighty word The winds and waves submissive heard Who walked upon the foaming deep And calm amidst its rage did sleep; O hear us when we cry to Thee For those in peril on 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; Thus, evermore shall rise to Thee Glad hymns of praise from land and sea
