Nothing too Hard for God

A poem based on Jeremiah 32:17. 

When darkness existed eternity past,
Nothing too hard for God
Through the word of His lips, His light did blast
Nothing too hard for God
From the universe, a void unfilled
To the countless worlds He upholds still
All of these do tell that there’s nothing too hard for God

The bride of Abram, a barren womb
Nothing too hard for God
The grave of Lazarus, a sealed off tomb
Nothing too hard for God
When reality stands beyond the power of man,
And none but the impossible lies at hand
None can contain His word of might, for there’s nothing too hard for God

At Bethesda’s pool 38 of his years
Nothing too hard for God
“Take up thy bed, and walk” he hears
Nothing too hard for God
For though infirmed, and a long time so
Now he rejoices, He has been made whole
The paralytic leaps for joy to proclaim, “Nothing for God!”

When nothing but sin your life reveals
Nothing too hard for God
Even still His Spirit appeals
Nothing too hard for God
For though man’s guilt and weakness stands,
Yet the Savior stretched out His hands
“Come to me, and be cleansed oh sinner, there’s nothing too hard for God”

Able is He, and more willing to save
Nothing too hard for God
And for this, as a pledge, His Son He gave
Nothing too hard for God
So when in doubt or fallen too
And knowing not what you can do
Remember please these words as true, there’s nothing too hard for God

  1. You write poetry too? Awesome! I love poetry. Problem is, i haven't nurtured my ability to write. But after the sermon about gifts and talents by Ps. Skeete at the Conference, i was challenged to go up higher and begin nurturing this gift. I believe it's a great too for spreading the gospel.
