Songfacts®:

  • Sanctus Real founder and lead vocalist Matt Hammitt announced in the summer of 2015, that he was leaving the band at the end of the year. This song features the band's new singer Dustin Lolli. Said guitarist Chris Rohman:

    "It was during a particular season of walking through so many unknowns when this song was written. We had to take a moment and look back so we could see the path God had brought us down. Once we did that, we wanted to write a song that expressed the joy we felt knowing God had been with us through it all and what it feels like to be held so lovingly by him."
