Forever and a Day

This was written to remind us what we do to the least of these, we do unto Jesus.

It is written, not in the general method, but from the perspective of Jesus, as the recipient of our Ministering, as if He were a king in a clever disguise, determining which of His subjects were compassionate.

Lyrics



Verse 1:
It was such a little thing to you
You've forgotten that it happened
But I never will forget it
Forever and a day!
You spoke a kind word to me
And gave me food to eat
And I wrote it down upon My heart
Forever and a day!

Chorus:
And Now, now that you've come home
I wrote it down for all the world to see
That even though you acted out of Love,
You didn't know the homeless man was Me!
And here, here before My throne
I'll tell the world the truth for all to hear!
That though I was right before your eyes
In a brilliant disguise
You gave selflessly
Forever and a Day!

Verse2:
No one would come near Me.
They had Me locked away.
And yet, you came to see Me
Although you were afraid.
I wondered if you really cared,
But I know I saw you pray.
And I'll cherish that within My heart
Forever and a Day.

Chorus:
...You didn't know the prisoner was Me!
...

Verse3:
No one could have seen you
When you knocked upon My door.
You left a box of clothes for Me
When you ran away.
You didn't want the credit
But I saw you anyway!
And I never will forget it
Forever and a Day!

Chorus:
...You didn't know the needy man was Me!
...
