This song IS ABOUT GOD. If you look at the Chorus, Bono sings 'All because of you, I AM'.
In the Bible, when Moses speaks to the burning bush, he asks who he should tell the egyptians sent him. Gods answer...
'I AM WHO I AM, tell them I AM sent you'
This is therefore God's name and Bono is telling God thats its all because of him, I AM.
If you have the special limited edition CD/DVD/Booklet version of the new album, yoiu will see that one of the pages in the booklet is about this song. It has I AM in the middle and about a quote from the Bible, take of your shoes because your on Holy ground blah blah blah.
