Sail On, O Ships

Sail on, O Ships, sail on;
Sail on over azure seas,
White sails flying at the mast
Filled with the eastern breeze.

Sail on, O Ships, sail on,
Though you know not where you go.
You seek to find some peace of mind
With ocean's ebb and flow.

Sail on, O Ships, sail on
For Spain and for your Queen.
New horizons wait for you;
Ahead are lands unseen.

Sail on, O Ships, sail on;
Hasten on your quest.
May God, Our Father, keep you safe.
May your journey be blessed.

Sail on, O Ships, sail on;
Stay stalwart, ships of three.
Be of good faith, ye men of God.
Sail to your destiny.
