H.O.L.Y.
Florida Georgia Line Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And the sky fall to only bring the rain
I sat in darkness
All broken hearted
I couldn't find a day I didn't feel alone
I never meant to cry, started losing hope
But somehow, baby
You broke through and saved me
You're an angel, tell me you're never leavin'
'Cause you're the first thing I know I can believe in
You're holy, holy, holy, holy
I'm high on loving you
High on loving you
You're holy, holy, holy, holy
I'm high on loving you
High on loving you
You made the brightest days from the darkest nights
You're the river bank where I was baptized
Cleansed from the demons
That were killin' my freedom
Let me lay you down, give me to ya
Get you singing babe, hallelujah
We'll be touchin', we'll be touchin' heaven
You're an angel, tell me you're never leavin'
'Cause you're the first thing I know I can believe in
You're holy, holy, holy, holy
I'm high on loving you
High on loving you
You're holy, holy, holy, holy
I'm high on loving you
High on loving you
I don't need these stars 'cause you shine for me (shine for me)
Like fire in my veins, you're my ecstasy
You're my ecstasy
You're holy, holy, holy, holy
I'm high on loving you
High on loving you
You're holy, holy, holy, holy
I'm high on loving you
High on loving you
You're the healin' hands where it used to hurt
You're my saving grace, you're my kind of church
You're holy
In Florida Georgia Line's song "H.O.L.Y.", the singer describes a time when he felt broken and alone, until he met someone who saved him. He sings about how she became his source of hope and comfort, comparing her to an angel and saying that she's the first thing he's ever truly believed in. The chorus repeats the word "holy" as the singer expresses how he's "high on loving" her. He credits her with bringing light to his life and washing away his troubles, saying that she's his "healing hands" and his "kind of church."
The song is a love ballad that strongly emphasizes the importance of a romantic partner in one's life. The use of religious language and imagery - including the repeated use of the word "holy" - adds a spiritual element to the lyrics, suggesting that the singer sees his lover as a kind of savior figure. This could be interpreted as a reflection of the enduring cultural significance of religion in the United States, as well as the way that love can inspire feelings of devotion and worship.

When the sun had left and the winter came
When times were tough and everything seemed to be falling apart
And the sky fall to only bring the rain
And it seemed as though everything was just getting worse
I sat in darkness
I felt lost and alone
All broken hearted
With a heart shattered into pieces due to pain
I couldn't find a day I didn't feel alone
I felt lonely and isolated every single day
I never meant to cry, started losing hope
I didn't want to show my pain, but I was slowly losing faith
But somehow, baby
But then, unexpectedly
You broke through and saved me
You came and rescued me from my despair
You're an angel, tell me you're never leavin'
You are like an angel to me, I hope you never leave my life
'Cause you're the first thing I know I can believe in
Because you are the first person I have truly placed my faith in
You're holy, holy, holy, holy
You are pure, sacred and divine
I'm high on loving you
I am deeply in love with you
You made the brightest days from the darkest nights
You brought light into my life even during my darkest moments
You're the river bank where I was baptized
You are the place I feel cleansed, purified and reborn
Cleansed from the demons
Free from the negativity
That were killin' my freedom
That were taking away my happiness and independence
Let me lay you down, give me to ya
Let me love and give myself completely to you
Get you singing babe, hallelujah
I want to make you feel happy and excited, like singing praises
We'll be touchin', we'll be touchin' heaven
When we are together, we feel like we are in heaven
I don't need these stars 'cause you shine for me (shine for me)
I don't need anything else, because you are everything to me
Like fire in my veins, you're my ecstasy
You give me passion and make me feel ecstatic
You're the healin' hands where it used to hurt
You have healed my pain and made me feel better
You're my saving grace, you're my kind of church
You have saved me from darkness and are my place of refuge and comfort
You're holy
You are special and sacred to me
You're holy, holy, holy, holy
You are beyond perfect and divine
I'm high on loving you
I am deeply in love with you
High on loving you
My love for you is intense and strong
You're holy, holy, holy, holy
You are pure, sacred and divine
I'm high on loving you
I am deeply in love with you
High on loving you
My love for you is intense and strong

Whoever is reading this, I wanted to say I hope you have a great day and that God loves you so much that he sent his son, Jesus, to die on a cross for your sins and he rose again from the dead three days later. God Bless! ✝️🙏🏼⛪️
And also, He doesn’t want you to go to Hell but he wants you to go to Heaven with him but you have to be Saved. How do I get Saved you might ask? Here are the steps below on how to get Saved!
1. Confess to Jesus that you are a sinner and ask forgiveness for your sins.
2. Believe that God sent His Son (Jesus) to die on a cross for your sins and that he rose again from the dead 3 days later.
3. Ask Jesus to come into your heart and your life and for him to be your Lord and Savior forever.
4. Build a Personal Relationship with Jesus by Praying and Reading the Bible daily and Live for Him Forever.
I’m Praying for you and you are loved!

Married the love of my life 6 years ago to this song and it still speaks volumes to every bump in the road we have had! It touches my soul in a million different ways. I will never get tired of hearing it
@breenewberry1958
I feel the same way about Can’t help falling in love by Elvis Presley. I married the love of my life in May and that’s the sign we danced to. Songs like that are special in a whole different way

No matter how many years pass, this song will stay in our hearts forever!💖
