In the lyric booklet Jessie has said this song is about a tough time in her life about a year before she became a christian, before she came to know Jesus. She couldn't help but feel a strong comforting feeling inside and that was the only thing that got her through... she felt it again just after she was saved.. it was only then she knew jesus was with her, even when she didnt know him. He was holding her just as he holds us when we go through really bad times...
Reading that... it kinda reminded me of the footprints poem. Where when the person asked God why when everything was good that God was with him and then when things went bad there was only one set of footprints... God was carrying him, holding him.
I really like the words of this song and it is so true cos we often try to fill the empty spot in us that we feel with everything else... when the empty spot is actually meant for our relationship with God.
