Such a Light Thing



An impossible crisis intervene
is a heavy nothing to God
It’s such a light thing,
a very light thing
When we're facing a certain death trap,
it only takes a light tap
from the Hand of God
to turn a dire situation around
Completely flip it upside down,
crook the devil emissaries' smiles into frowns
This is such a very light task ...
 a vapor helium ask
A vacuum void of empty
devil indemnity,
sending attack demon dog beasts
with sharp teeth
Stressful prayers of saints
under siege ... 
crushing soul gravity
Heavy hearts 
dealing with weighty,
mountainous odds
Ain’t nothing but a light thing 
for Almighty God,
it’s such a light thing ...
Faith given wings like a dove,
feathery joy fluttering up 
to the heavens above
Prayer amen hands
given double-blessed love
Showing us that ain’t nothing too heavy,
too hard for God
Signs of a needed miracle ... something impossible,
is a nothing deed that nod 
yawns Him
to barely lift His Messiah rod
With ease,
the shadow returned backward
ten degrees
This was such a light thing
Raising the dead from the grave
was such a light save
For Almighty God,
a very light thing
These be such light requests, 
requiring only a slight touch
from the Finger of Power
It’s such a holy light thing — 
in the eyes of God, we’re not asking much
Miracles performed
are such a very light thing ... but not to us!

Very sentimental and forceful depiction..I understand the sentiments..what seems impossible is not a heavy load for God. Well crafted for impact, Freddie.
