It is better to try and fail than never to have tried at all. That is the message of this anonymous text powerfully set by Brad Printz. “The Ship That Sails” is about strife and striving, taking risks, honor andcourage. A powerful message for concerts, graduation, or even memorial services where inspiration is needed. Melody and accompaniment start quietly and build as the passion of the text builds to reflect the rolling, billowingmovement of the sea.
