O Maker of the sea and sky
Author: Henry Burton Hymnal: The Hymnal #418 (1916) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Travelers by Sea and Land Lyrics:
Maker of the sea and sky,
Whose word the stormy winds fulfill,
On the wide ocean thou art nigh,
Bidding these hearts of ours be still!
What if thy footsteps are not known?
We know thy way is in the sea;
We trace the shadow of thy throne,
Constant amid inconstancy.
Thou bidd'st the north or south wind blow:
The lonely sea-bird is thy care;
And in the clouds which come and go,
We see thy chariots everywhere.
The sun that lights the homeland dear
Spreads the new morning o'er the deep;
And in the dark thy stars appear,
Keeping their watches while we sleep.
Our friends seem near when thou art nigh;
And homeless on the ocean foam,
Beneath an ever-changing sky,
With thee we are at rest, at home.
And so, secure from all alarms,
Thy seas beneath, thy skies above,
Clasped in the everlasting arms,
We rest in thine unslumbering love.
Amen.

O Maker of the sea and sky
With the sweet word of peace
Author: George Watson Hymnal: The Hymnal #419 (1916) Meter: 6.6.8.4 Topics: Travelers by Sea and Land Lyrics:
With the sweet word of peace
We bid our brethren go;
Peace as a river to increase,
And ceaseless flow.
With the calm word of prayer
We earnestly commend
Our brethren to thy watchful care,
Eternal Friend!
With the dear word of love
We give our brief farewell;
Our love below, and thine above,
With them shall dwell.
With the strong word of faith
We stay ourselves on thee,
That thou, O Lord, in life and death,
Their help shalt be;
Then the bright word of hope
Shall on our parting gleam,
And tell of joys beyond the scope
Of earth-born dream.
Farewell! in hope and love,
In faith, and peace, and prayer;
Till he whose home is ours above,
Unite us there.
Amen.

Eternal Father, Strong to Save
Author: William Whiting, 1825-1878 Hymnal: Lutheran Book of Worship #467 (1978) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Topics: Travelers Lyrics: 1 Eternal Father, strong to save,
Whose arm has bound the restless wave,
Who bade the mighty ocean deep
Its own appointed limits keep:
Oh, hear us when we cry to thee
For those in peril on the sea.
2 O Savior, whose almighty word
The winds and waves submissive heard,
Who walked upon the foaming deep,
And calm amid the storm didst sleep:
Oh, hear us when we cry to thee
For those in peril on the sea.
3 O Holy Spirit, who didst brood
Upon the chaos dark and rude,
And bid its angry tumult cease,
And give, for wild confusion, peace:
Oh, hear us when we cry to thee
For those in peril on the sea.
4 O Trinity of love and pow'r,
All trav'lers guard 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 and praise from land and sea. Languages: English Tune Title: MELITA

O happy band of pilgrims
Author: St. Joseph the Hymnographer; John Mason Neale Hymnal: The Hymnal #536 (1916) Meter: 7.6.7.6 Topics: Travelers by Sea and Land Lyrics:
O happy band of pilgrims,
If onward ye will tread
With Jesus as your fellow
To Jesus as your head!
O happy if ye labour
As Jesus did for men!
O happy if ye hunger
As Jesus hungered then!
The cross that Jesus carried,
He carried as your due:
The crown that Jesus weareth,
He weareth it for you.
The faith by which ye see him,
The hope in which ye yearn,
The love that through all troubles
To him alone will turn;
The trials that beset you,
The sorrows ye endure,
The manifold temptations
That death alone can cure;
What are they but his jewels,
Of right celestial worth?
What are they but the ladder
Set up to heaven on earth?
O happy band of pilgrims,
Look upward to the skies,
Where such a light affliction
Shall win so great a prize!
497
To Father, Son, and Spirit,
The God whom we adore,
Be loftiest praises given,
Now and for evermore.
Amen.

Hear our anxious prayer;
Keep our loved ones, now far absent,
'Neath Thy care.
2 Jesus, Saviour, let Thy presence
Be their light and guide;
Keep, O keep them, in their weakness
At Thy side.
3 When in sorrow, when in danger,
When in loneliness,
In Thy love look down and comfort
Their distress.
4 Holy Spirit, let Thy teaching
Be their strength and stay;
May they love and may they praise Thee
Day by day.
5 Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,
God the One in Three,
Bless them, guide them, save them, keep them,
Near to Thee.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: CAIRNBROOK
