I love this song because I had the opportunity to work with JimmyLee before he passed away. I only knew him as a man who loved to dabble in music, until I learned he was a retired preacher. He did not wear his faith like a bright flashing sign, but rather a gentle light shining in all he did.
I miss his encouragement.
Although my lyrics here do not impress me now....I leave this as a sign of my appreciation to Jimmy Lee.
a true gift....!
When Jimmy Lee passed away, I closed this song to comments...but I've had several messages asking me to open it to messages, so I will today, years after we lost one of our bright lights at Songramp.
Beyond Impossible

june 14, 2006
a tiny child so weak
and losing all her strength
must face more chemotherapy
and though the doctors hint
her chances of recovery are slim....
her parents pray and give her life to HIM......
a rescue team calls ahead
they pull her from a burning wreck
with broken bones and twisted neck
Her family gathers by the bed
They pray Lord we know this is bad
but we believe with You she has a chance......
chorus:
Beyond Impossible
Lies a world where dreamers dream
Beyond Impossible There is no word: defeat
We find our strength in each new day
with God All things are possible when we believe......
(half verse)
She lived her life for family
Endured his pain, her suffering
Believing that the day would come
when she could walk away from fear and harm......
bridge:
For faith knows no boundaries
no fears, no limits, to our needs
We know that we can do all things
For it's in Christ, we find our strength.....
chorus:
Beyond Impossible
Lies a world where dreamers dream
Beyond Impossible
There is no word: defeat
We find our strength in each new day
with God All things are possible
when we believe......
ending:
Beyond impossible..... all things are possible.....
in Christ we find our strength
