A lost blast from the past. Thanks for posting this. I remember the record being a clear yellow and haven't heard it since I was a kid. The record is long out of print but would be a real find at a used record store.
@exfuzeeveryday - You're correct the vinyl LP is no longer available, but if you want the Sail on Sailor CD, contact Oden Fong through MySpace. He can burn a copy off his masters for a donation to his ministry.
I met Oden in 1975 at Costa Mesa's Calvary Chapel and have been playing MSF music on the guitar ever since.
Sidney the Pirate is not on the SOS album. Neither is my favorite MSF song Rich Man, Poor Man which I think was only performed live.
I had two 8-trac tapes and long long road trips. I had Mustard Seed Faith's Sail on Sailor. And I had Crime of the Century by Supertramp. I liked them equally but always thought of as Sail on Sailor was the positive picture of same picture that was like negative that was Crime of the Century. Thanks for reminding me.
I was a 19 year old USN sailor, brand new Christian back in1976. This song used to grab my heart and sure caused me to weap with such graditude for my loving Lord Jesus.
This song is still among my favorites. Great reminder of older simpler times.

Where can i get the guitar tab and lyrics for this tune? I would really hate to see it lost in the darkness of this world

This is one of the first songs I came to know as a new Christian in 1978. Thirty three years later it still touches and brings joy to my heart!
