The Stone
By Karen Shaw Matteson
©2001
It is so heavy as I push
Seeking to remove this obstacle
The years have increased the size
and weight of this burden
The light is filtering through
and I want to reach it
My spirit cries out to God
"Help me"
And I feel the touch of an angel
Gently lifting me up
With silent resolve,
He leads me to the Light
The stone is gone
And I look up and see
The heavens bright
My strength was insufficient..
But you heard, and saw my plight
How warm the sun that shines on me
From light that leads eternally
