Original text and translations

English text

1  Holy Father, in Thy mercy, Hear our anxious prayer; Keep our loved ones, now far distant, 'Neath Thy care. 2  Jesus, Saviour, let Thy presence Be their light and guide; Keep, O keep them, in their weakness, By Thy side.

3  When in sorrow, when in danger, When in loneliness, In Thy love look down and comfort Their distress. 4  May the joy of Thy salvation Be their strength and stay; May they love and may they praise Thee Day by day.

5  Holy Spirit, let Thy teaching Sanctify their life; Send Thy grace that they may conquer In the strife. 6  Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, God the One in Three, Bless them, guide them, save them, keep them Near to Thee.
