Navy Hymn (Eternal Father) lyrics
by The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square
Eternal Father, strong to save
Whose arm hath bound the restless wave
Who bidd'st the mighty ocean deep
Its own appointed limits keep
Oh hear us when we cry to Thee
For those in peril on the sea! Amen
Eternal Father, lend Thy grace To
Those with wings who fly thro' space
Thro wind and storm, thro' sun and rain
Oh bring them safely home again
Oh Father, hear an humble prayer
For those in peril in the air! Amen
Oh Trinity of love and pow'r
Our brethren shield in danger's hour
From rock and tempest, fire and foe
Protect them where so e'er they go
Thus evermore shall rise to Thee
Glad hymns of praise from land and sea! Amen
