DEDICATED TO THE MISSION TO SEAFARERS

When tempests rage, the storm-tossed sea
Its dangers, sailors strive to flee
The cries from ship to shore are clear
They echo far so all can hear
St Nicholas the sailors friend
Stay with us now, our lives defend

A mighty word, the saint extends
To ask the Lord, your mercy send
That holding tight the tiller's frame
The storms will cease and all be tame
St Nicholas the sailors friend
Your prayers surround us to life's end

Now bless us on the sea of life
As we against all deadly strife
Live out our lives courageously
At home, at work and on the sea
O wonderworker and our friend
Your blessing to us now extend.
