From a distance
Through the shadows
You came running
With arms wide open
With a whisper
Called me closer
Now I’m all in
I’m Yours forever
You can make my soul sing
You can make my world breathe
Nothing is impossible with You in my life
With You I’ll cross the river
Walking on the water
Nothing is impossible
With You in my life
With You in my life
With You in my life
Nothing is impossible
With You in my life
You’re the image
Of perfection
A thousand pictures
With no filter
You’re the song that
Is never ending
It’s on repeat
And we’ll sing it louder
