Exhausted Crewmen
Damage
Eternal Father, strong to save,
Whose arm does bind the restless wave,
Who bids the mighty ocean deep
Its own appointed limits keep;
 
O Savior, whose almighty word
The winds and waves submissive heard,
Who walk upon the foaming deep,
And clam amid the rage did sleep;
 
O hear us when we cry to Thee
For those in peril on the sea.
 
Amen
