Oh Dearest Lord
Your name be praised
On this significant moment
As each one of seafarer
Gathered for thanksgiving
Oh Almighty Father
Your grace be blessed
For every seafarer present
As we all express gratitude
For the whole lot we established
Oh Loving God
Your presence we exalt
This filled our heart with joy
As we converge with families
That you hold dear and strong
Oh Most Powerful Messiah
Your love and forgiveness we received
That made us all strong faithful seafarers
We pray oh God that may You continue to grant us
To be our shield from difficulties at all times in the sea
This we all pray..
In Jesus name our Savior…AMEN
