Eternal Father, Strong to Save (Rock-Metal Version) 🎸🔥

Step into the powerful resonance of "Eternal Father, Strong to Save", a timeless Christian hymn reimagined in the bold and electrifying style of rock-metal! This rendition breathes new energy into the hymn while preserving its deeply spiritual and maritime heritage. ⚓️🙏

The History Behind the Hymn
"Eternal Father, Strong to Save" was penned in 1860 by William Whiting, a poet and hymn writer from England. Inspired by Psalm 107, which speaks of God’s deliverance of those in peril on the sea, Whiting wrote this hymn as a prayer for safety and protection for sailors and those braving the mighty oceans.

The hymn's music was composed by John Bacchus Dykes in 1861, and its melody, known as "Melita," is named after the biblical island of Malta, where the Apostle Paul found refuge after being shipwrecked. The hymn has since become known as the "Navy Hymn," beloved by maritime communities, naval forces, and congregations worldwide. Its poignant plea for divine protection has been sung at numerous significant events, including naval ceremonies, memorials, and even funerals of U.S. presidents.

✝️ Lyrics:
Eternal Father, Strong to Save
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 amid the rage did sleep;
O hear us when we cry to Thee
For those in peril on the sea.

O Holy Spirit, who did brood
Upon the waters dark and rude,
And bid their angry tumult cease,
And give for wild confusion peace;
O hear us when we cry to Thee
For those in peril on the sea.

O Trinity of love and pow'r,
Your children 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.
