No doubt the song has a clear Christian favour to it, as well as 'Even in the Quietest Moments' and a few others. Hodgson is very explicit in his praying attitude, and along with atheist Rick Davies they create the artistic and thematic tension that makes Supertramp so interesting and put it to an end too.
The plain way he speaks to the Lord and the peace and calm that comes from the music speak of a spiritual reach that sums up a long search. But it's not peasant or pretentious, just open hearted and honest. And it works.
