Thou who dost rule on high,
Our Father and our friend,
All those who ride the sky
We now to thee commend;
For though among the stars they move,
They cannot pass beyond thy love.
Alone in boundless space,
May they remain with thee;
The glory of thy face
Among the heavens see;
For thou, by land and sea and air,
Art with thy children everywhere.
When tempests loose their power
And dangers gather round,
In thee, in that dread hour,
May their defence be found;
O may that peace possess their mind
Which all thy trusting children find;
And soon from pole to pole
Thy kingdom, Lord, arise;
And peace alone control
The commerce of the skies;
Till all the gifts thou givest men,
We to thy glory give again.
