  • beautiful song and i liked the video until the very end, i dont understand, did i miss something? why did she collapse at the end after praying? did she die? kind of a strange ending for such a beautiful song and video..sorry i just dont get it

  • We wanted to leave it open for people to interpret the ending for themselves, but it ended up causing confusion. Here is how I look at it.

    The set up early in the video is about her migraine headaches, and how they're getting worse. In the end, she dies from them, and is accepted into heaven. The message is: no matter how bad your life may be, we can always find comfort in knowing that one day we will be in the loving arms of our Creator.

    I hope this answers your question.  :)

  • oh my gosh this made me cry. great video!

  • Awesome video man. Love it. Great job

  • I love what you did with tying the daughter's drawings into the story. It was really well done. I also loved the part of the video where she walks into the church and is greeted. Shown Christ's love and hope as she is prayed for.

    This is such a good song, one that is filled with raw emotion. I felt a little disappointed that the mother's emotions of sadness and hopelessness weren't better conveyed. She did a good job of course, but I never felt like she captured the raw emotion.

  • beautiful! =)=)=)

  • ok i see, what a great message!

  • Aw, my cousin Darci is in this. I liked it! It's all so well-done, especially the cinematography, I thought.

  • Really good. I often dont expect much, but this was good.

  • You did an excellent job on this video, you might want to take a peak at the video I did for "Take Hold".

    Take care,

    Dave
