Lyrics - The Ship in Distress - - - You seamen all who plow the ocean see dangers landsmen never know - In the blusterous wind in the great dark water our ship went drifting on the sea - Her headgear gone and her rudder broken which brought us to extremity. - For 14 days heartsore and hungry . . . Poor fellows they stood in a totter - A-casting lots as to which should die - The lot it fell onto Robert Jackson whose family was so very great - I am free to die but oh my comrades - Let me keep look out till the break of day - A full-dressed ship like the sun a-glittering - Came bearing down into their relief - As soon as this glad news was shouted - It banished all their care and grief - You seamen all who sail the ocean - Pray you never suffer like again.

Like it! What kind of flute are you guys using?

[@ShortTailedSnails]

Thank you. Our flute player takes a tin whistle for that song. But I do not know the name of the luthier that made it. Nothing expensive as far as I can remember.

@@ShortTailedSnails Awesome, yes it sounds perfect! Thanks for the reply. Really inspired by this.

@@musicisbrilliant Even the best tin whistles are fairly cheap. $50 would be considered ridiculously expensive for one. Its literally a rolled piece of metal with holes in it with a mouthpiece.
