"Eternal Father, Strong to Save", (The Navy Hymn) penned by Anglican Churchman and poet William Whiting in 1860, was inspired by Psalm 107, which describes the power and dangers of the sea. The tune, Melita, was composed by clergyman John Bacchus Dykes in 1861. Poet and musician came together to give to us the hymn we know today, "Eternal Father, Strong to Save". This hymn, popularized by the Royal Navy and the United States Navy in the 19th century, has since been adopted by other armed services for official use. Today it stands as one of the most famous hymns in Christendom. This arrangement is scored for 4-part SATB ensemble (with minor divisi) to be performed a cappella. It uses only the text of Whiting's original poem. Performance time: 3:30+-
