'O Father hear our prayer to Thee,
From your humble servants beneath the sea.
In deepest oceans as oft we stray,
So far removed from night and day.

We ask Thy guiding light to glow,
To make our journey safe, below.
May ours be clarity of mind,
And let the darkness not us blind.

Give us strength when we go deep,
Charge our batteries when we sleep.
From homes and loved ones far away,
We beg Thy gentle care each day.

Pray we Thy guiding hand to show,
Course, speed, and depth that we should go.
Until we surface once again,
To breathe Thine air and feel Thy rain.

On each occasion, Lord, we dive,
May we later on the roof arrive.
Till a final ballast blow is due,
When let us join in Thy boat's crew.

Amen
