I think StormTrooper74 is right, but I also think there is more to it.
I think it is about no matter how lost or sinful someone is, everyone is still human, and they need God whether they acknowledge it or not. And we have to see that, and evangelize to people.
I find it interesting the contrast of the first and second verses. The first shows someone clearly in despair because of how sin has affected her life. In the second verse, the man would not say he needed God or anyone else. He's tough, independent. The third verse is seeing these people, and knowing what to do, but hiding behind apathy and excuses. The final chorus about his own heart is how he needs God as well, and I think also that the other people are just like him. No one is so far gone in sin for Christ to forgive, and we must not judge people but have compassion on them because we are the same.
