I want you to lean on God and trust his flawless record.
He never fails; he can do the impossible.
How do I know? I've seen him do it!
Verse 1:
I have no doubt my God can do the impossible.
I know he can; I've seen him do it.
He can turn the mess you're in to an awesome miracle.
I know he can; I've seen him do it.
Whatever problem you've got,
If you just give it to God, he'll work it out.

Meaning & Inspiration
Built around repeated testimony, this song presents God as dependable when circumstances appear impossible. The opening addresses severe obstacles, while the verses move from personal confidence to concrete images of restoration, preservation, grace, and freedom from the weight of the past. Its recurring declaration, “I have seen him do it,” functions as evidence within the song: trust rests on remembered acts of divine help rather than on denial of present trouble.
The lyric closely reflects biblical language about nothing being impossible with God and about the Lord remaining faithful. It also treats prayer as an act of surrender, urging burdens to be placed in God’s care. The extended chorus and bridge reinforce a communal gospel witness, with repetition turning the central claim into praise. Instead of offering a detailed explanation for suffering, the song holds together hardship and confidence, affirming that divine ability, grace, and faithfulness are greater than the problems being named.
