O Father who art in Zion
Hear our voice, oh Jah today in our prayer
And accept our thanksgiving
Father we thank you for all that you have done
And for what you are doing now

The Lord is I shepherd, I shall not want
He maketh me to lie in green pastures
He leadeth besides the still waters
He restoreth my soul, he restoreth my soul

Splashing, dashing, restless sea
Never still you seem to be
Sometimes angry, sometimes sad
Sometimes you laugh as though you′re glad

Splashing, dashing, restless sea
Never still you seem to be
Sometimes angry, sometimes sad
Sometimes you laugh as though you're glad

Little children love you well
Love all the wondrous tales you tell
Love to watch you come and go
In the tides that ebb and flow

Yet though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I will fear no evil, ′cause Jah is with me
Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me

Splashing, dashing, restless sea
Never still you seem to be
Sometimes angry, sometimes sad
Sometimes you laugh as though you're glad

Splashing, dashing, restless sea
Never still you seem to be
Sometimes angry, sometimes sad
Sometimes you laugh as though you're glad

Little children love you well
Love all the wondrous tales you tell
Love to watch you come and go
In the tides that ebb and flow

Though so strong and great you are
Stretching deep, wide and far
Tiny vessels safe and keep
Rocking them gently, as to sleep
Wildly and rough though you may be
When you are angry, mighty sea
When the storm has gone, we find
You are still our playmate kind

Splashing, dashing, restless sea
Never still you seem to be
Sometimes angry, sometimes sad
Sometimes you laugh as though you′re glad

Splashing, dashing, restless sea
Never still you seem to be
Sometimes angry, sometimes sad
Sometimes you laugh as though you′re glad

Little children love you well
Love all the wondrous tales you tell
Love to watch you come and go
In the tides that ebb and flow

Splashing, dashing, restless sea
Never still you seem to be
Sometimes angry, sometimes sad
Sometimes you laugh as though you're glad
