Got dropped. Lost friends. Spent all my money\u2026and had to move back in with my parents. It was then that I realized the thing that I was looking for most was in front of me the whole time. My true friends and family. Even at my lowest point, being back home with my family is what made me truly happy. The song isn\u2019t a literal take on religion or about Jesus at all. It\u2019s about searching for hope and happiness and realizing those things aren\u2019t always where you think you\u2019ll find them.\u201d Benjamin will perform the single on <em>The Tonight Show<\/em> on September 3rd.<\/p>\n<p>The musician will tour North America and Europe this fall, with stops at LA\u2019s Fonda Theatre on October 9th and New York\u2019s Terminal 5 on October 25th.
