Eternal Father

[Verse 1]
Eternal father strong to save
Whose arm does bind the restless wave
Who bidd'st the mighty ocean deep
Its own appointed limits keep

[Chorus]
Oh hear us when we cry to thee
For those in peril on the sea

[Verse 2]
Time like an ever-rolling stream
Bears all it's children soon away
To fly forgotten as a dream
Dies at the opening of the day

[Chorus]
Oh, hear us when we cry to thee
For those in peril here with me

[Verse 3]
Oh let the darkness shine as light
Make endless night time to be bright
When fear and sorrows all have passed
Then face to face we'll meet at last

[Chorus]
Be still when tears are wiped from men
Whose eyes shall never weep again
Weep again
Weep again
