Some of the lyrics of the song say, “God keep my head above water / Don’t let me drown / It gets harder / I’ll meet you there at the altar / As I fall down to my knees / Don’t let me drown / Don’t let me drown,” she sings in the song’s chorus.” The Christian Post mentioned that you can see a dove flying near her and in the Bible the particular animal is also known as the Holy Spirit.

I loved every moment of working on this video with you.” She also thanked the producers as well as the co-writers for helping her with everything.
