Fred Flint O Father,hear our prayer to thee,your humble servants beneath the sea,
 In the depths of ocean oft we stray,so far from night so far from day,
 we would ask your guiding light to glow,to make sure our journey safe below,
 please oft times grant us patient mind,then ere the darkness ,won't us blind,
 We seek thy protection from the deep,and grant us peace whene're we sleep,
 Of our homes and loved ones far away ,we ask you care for them each day,
 until we surface once again ,to drink the air and feel the rain,
 We ask your guiding hand to show ,a safe progression ,sure and slow,
 Dear lord ,please hear our prayers to thee,from your humble servants beneath the sea.
 amen.

Michael Morgan ‎"The Lord is my pilot, I shall not go adrift; He lighteth my passage across dark channels; He steereth me through the deep waters, He keepeth my log. He guideth me by the evening star for my safety's sake. Yea, though I sail mid the thunders and tempest of life, I shall fear no peril for Thou art with me. The vastness of thy sea upholds me. Surely fair winds and safe harbors shall be found all the days of my life; And I shall moor, fast, and secure, forever Amen.
