| Holy Father, in Thy mercy,Hear our anxious prayer.
 Keep our loved ones, now far distant,
 ’Neath Thy care.
 Jesus, Savior, let Thy presenceBe their light and guide;
 Keep, oh, keep them, in their weakness,
 At Thy side.
 When in sorrow, when in danger,When in loneliness,
 In Thy love look down and comfort
 Their distress.
 May the joy of Thy salvationBe their strength and stay;
 May they love and may they praise Thee
 Day by day.
 Holy Spirit, let Thy teachingSanctify their life;
 Send Thy grace, that they may conquer
 In the strife.
 Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,God the One in Three,
 Bless them, guide them, save them, keep them
 Near to Thee.
