When You Were Hungry

When you were hungry
I gave you food
Till it was empty
You thought it good

When you were thirsty
I gave you drink
Till it was empty
And in the sink

When you were injured
I gave you aid
And your smile assured
That I was paid

When you were naked
I gave you clothes
When you were sickly
I held you close

When you broke the law
I didn't balk
Though the pain was raw
We still did talk

When you were tired
I gave you rest
And this peace inspired
Pure love at best

When you needed love
I gave you much
For heaven's made of
Good things of such

When to my neighbor
I show kindness
For Christ I labor
And I'm my finest

When to a stranger
I welcome in
That babe in the manger
It is unto Him

And all that I do
Is for my Lord
To show love anew
That He is adored

Matthew 25:
35 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:
36 Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?
39 Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.
41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
42 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:
43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
44 Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or thirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?
45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.
46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.
