The text is a plea for help in turbulent times, the “pilot” of the title refers to a nautical, not aviation, context. The oceanic imagery of Hopper’s text is akin to the sentiments of the beloved hymn “Eternal Father, Strong to Save,” while Ball’s setting, though original, is anchored in the spirit of the sturdy gospel songs that many people fondly associate with their spiritual formation.
