I think its about the death of a loved one, and coming to terms with loss. The main theme is is summed up by "A spirit's alive, though a body has died" meaning that death is the process of one's spirit being born into the afterlife, and that spirit is something we on Earth can still connect with through our faith. The rest of the song explores that dynamic in a very personal way. Thank you Flyleaf for a song of such incredible power and beauty.
