As Unto You

-

"Inasmuch as ye have done it,"

Jesus speaks so earnestly,

"To the least of these my brethren,

Ye have done it unto ME."

-

Mama's hands are always busy

And her schedule nearly frays,

If she smiles and kindly listens,

"Twas for me," the Savior says.

-

I was sad, in need of comfort

And you gently placed a hand

On my weary-laden shoulder

For you kindly understand.

-

I was hungry and you brought me

Food and drink, how kind of thee!

Let us think of Jesus saying,

"Ye have done it unto ME."

-

We, of course, can not, by merits

Enter Heaven's portals, free

But if in our hearts He's living,

Deeds of love come naturally.

-

Let us, then, not cease to ponder

On His words, "As unto ME,"

Let's be kind, always remember

What He did on Calvary!

Matthew 25:40

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.
