Most would say that this song is about someone special in her life, and, yes that is true. However, more specifically, I would say it's about her relationship with her Father (God, Yahweh, her papa).

We see this

here: "Here in the stillness, the quiet place, Where I'm lying with a down turned face"

here: "It's you who brings the morning And you who takes the sun when I sleep You're the only one that stuck around For me when I was losing faith in what I thought I would be You're the only one in the dark I see"

(Pretty much the whole chorus)

When I first heard this song, I cried.

As she said in the original video, this is a positive song. I find it a song which gives me hope and inspires me. I truly hope it inspires you as well.
