That's the one. In kind of an odd tradition, my marching band would sing and play a rendition of this hymn as a warmup before football games. I'm not in a navy family, but the song always connected on a much broader level. 9/11/01 was, amongst other things, a grueling 9-hour day of marching band tryouts, and that day is now part of the memories this song stirs up for me.
