Pairing the text of Edward Hopper's 19th c. hymn "Jesus, Savior, Pilot Me" with Charles Wesley's "Jesus, Lover of My Soul", Thomas Grassi brings us a musical meditation on our longing for the presence of Christ in times of trouble. The cello part is expertly written and the piano accompaniment, while not simple, uses a full palette of colors and register changes to support the text. The result is uplifting, never overbearing.
