Planetshakers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Youʼre everything I need
Youʼre my comfort, Youʼre my best friend
Forever You will reign
You are high and lifted up
And Your Kingdom will have no end
By the cross, and the blood that was shed
I am favored I am blessed
I can do all things, because of what Youʼve done for me
Nothing is impossible for those that believe
Nothing is to difficult for our God
Nothing is impossible for those that believe
I believe, I believe in You
