It's from God's perspective, the whole song, look at the lyrics, he's talking from God's perspective
"Friend, please
remove your hands
from over your eyes
for me
I know you want to leave but
friend, please
don't take your life away
from me"
If you read that from a super natural perspective then you will see that God is saying do not turn from the path of righteousness or commit suicide, instead come closer to me and put your life in my hands.
