Poem: “Beneath the Weight”

Beneath the Weight

Beneath the weight of death we’d break
If God did not lift up that mass,
Why? For love and mercy’s sake
Until the weight of death should pass

Even God had strained and groaned
So heavy did our burden prove,
That when He moved away that stone
It was eternity He moved

We would be crushed, our spirits torn
And every atom moved and split,
Unless the weight of death were borne
And every light of mercy lit
