as a knife through sugar

as a knife through sugar,
through sand
God’s voice in heaven
cutting open the sky
the light descending
the Spirit falling upon him
as Christ rose from the waters
God began to speak
of his love, anointing
sending forth our Savior
on his earthly journey
for this he came to earth
