Lyrics
Give us faith to move these mountains
Move us 'til our trust is boundless
When there is no way you make a way
Give us faith to walk on water
Every step is by your power
When there is no way
You make a way
You're the god of the impossible
Only you are lord of all
Power glory strength belong to you
You're the god of might and majesty
One day every eye will see
And all the world will bow before
The god of the impossible
If you are for us what can stop us?
Nothing now can stand against us
When there is no way you are the way
You're the god of the impossible
Only you are lord of all
Power glory strength belong to you
You're the god of might and majesty
One day every eye will see
And all the world will bow before
The god of the impossible
We can do all things
For god you are with us
We can do all things
Your love makes us fearless
We can do all things
For god you are with us
We can do all things
Your love makes us fearless
Oohh Oohh Oohh
You're the god of the impossible
Only you are lord of all
Power glory strength belong to you
You're the god of might and majesty
One day every eye will see
And all the world will bow before
The god of the impossible
You're the god of the impossible
You're the god of the impossible

Meaning & Inspiration
Faith in divine power drives every section of this song. The opening petitions ask for trust strong enough to face mountains and step onto water, while the repeated claim that God makes a way acknowledges human limits. Impossible circumstances are not minimized; they become the setting in which dependence upon the power of God is confessed. The chorus responds with worship, assigning power, glory, strength, might, and majesty to the Lord alone.
The later lines move from personal obstacles to a wider vision of divine rule. Nothing can finally stand against God, and the whole world is pictured bowing before him. The repeated statement about doing all things is grounded in the presence and love of God rather than confidence in unaided ability. Several biblical images meet in these lyrics: faith that moves mountains, Peter walking on water at the call of Jesus, and every knee bowing before Christ. Together, they frame courage as a result of who God is and of his faithful presence amid what appears impossible.
