This song is very popular with Christian churches. Many churches have done skits using this song. The skit deals with our relationship with God and how we are searching for a way to fill the longing in our soul with something other than God, and this leads us to sin.

There is a female lead(or sometimes two leads, one male, one female) who starts out nurturing her relationship with God and God shows her all that he has created for her and how good it is for her. Their dancing together represents God leading her through the journey of her life and how beautiful it can be. As the song plays, she becomes distracted by lust, avarice, alcoholism and vanity, depression and despair into suicide. Each temptation in its own way mirrors the relationship the female has with God but is twisted in someway.

The skit ends with the black shirt being torn off during her struggle to be reconciled with Jesus and reveals a white shirt underneath. This can represent a baptism by fire of sorts, In the desperation of sin she comes to realize that only God can fill her and how much she needs God. It is once she realizes that she needs God and that she tries to get back to Him. In the end it is Jesus who steps in and takes on sin in the form of a cross to free her.

i didnt get to watch it but i my self have actually seen it. the message is somewhere along the lines of showing allthe different things in life that pull you away from God. i am not really sure though sorry.

I cried when i watched it..very powerful..this is what it meant to me...In this world life is full of temptations.It is very easy to fall into evil ways.God will rescue you and will be there for you..at the end he fought all the demons and she danced with god again... DON'T LET TEMPTATION,BRING YOU DOWN.WHAT LOOKS GOOD REALLY ISN'T...It was a great skit...
