Sad song. Probably the most popular "dark horse" hit among the newsboys tunes. It's about,probably a father,whose daughter commits suicide. He tries to go through it and "solve" it by himself. He goes through alot of confusion and obvious heartbreak. But at ther end of the song he finally hands everything over to God. I don't really know what they mean by the verse "We havent a hope beyond your grace",if this is talking about God's effect on the father,i would most definately agree. But i disagree with the fact that anyone who commits suicide like the song descirbes as a chance of going to Heaven. But its still a good song.
I just want to add that I totally disagree. If Jesus death only helps for sins that we brought to God and asked for forgiveness then that would mean that we only get access to heaven when we die straight after we ask for forgiveness and if we did not forget any sins that we committed. I myself am too bad a person to be aware of all my sins and there is usually some time in my life between committing a sin and asking for forgiveness...
Besides that I had the unpleasant chance to think a bit about suicide...

Besides that I had the unpleasant chance to think a bit about suicide as some of my aqucaintances committed suicide. I would say that no healthy mind does not go so far as to commit suicide. That means if someone commits suicide he is not healthy. In my opinion that means that the death therefore is no more or less the result of a disease as if someone dies from cancer. Depressions are considered as one - of not the - worst disease at all and I think nobody who did not suffer from that should even think that he might be able to understand how bad that is. (not saying that God is not able to heal that ...)
Therefore - to come to the point - I strongly believe that God's grace also covers the sin of committing suicide - not more or less than if a committed Christian dies straight after lying (or making room for some bad thought) to someone.
