This song was written based on Belhaven’s Verse of the Year (2007)—Luke 18:27: “What is impossible from a human perspective is possible with God.”
Dr. Parrott’s kickoff speech that year framed that verse with the story of William Wilberforce—how God used a faithful, weary man (and even the arts) to turn what a whole culture said “can’t change” into something that finally did. Then he brought it home: storms we don’t anticipate, moments we feel alone, and the temptation to forget who Jesus is when the waves get large and loud.
That’s exactly what this song keeps reminding of —faith the size of a mustard seed, dreams that need to be magnified, and the invitation to let “sanctified imagination” take flight. If you’re staring at something that feels too big, too broken, too stuck… perhaps this is your reminder: the impossible is not the end of the story.
From where I’m standing it seems impossible… but it is possible with God.

It’s Possible with God | Lyrics
Chorus
What is impossible from a human perspective
What is impossible is possible with God
What is impossible from my own understanding
From where I’m standing it seems impossible
But it is possible with God
(1 st time repeat chorus)
Verse
You wanna move a mountain to the sea
It’s possible with God (choir)
With faith the size of a mustard seed
It’s possible with God
Gotta look a life thru God’s own eyes
Your dream’s too small gotta magnify it
Let sanctified imagination fly
It’s possible with God
Bridge
There’s a God-size dream growing in my soul
That God put there it’s out of my control
I can’t achieve it on my own but I believe it in my soul that
It is Possible with God
CHORUS
Ending
It’s possible with God…
Let sanctified imagination fly
It’s possible with God
