The Least of These
by Wayne Watson

Album: The Very Best Of

You've always been humble in a worship of praise
The first to lift up My name
Your posters and pins say that when I return
You'll be one I'll claim
In times of distress you've remembered to pray
Been faithful to read My book
But beyond all good manner and worthy intent
There's something that I can't overlook

Did you feed Me when I begged you
Filled My cup when I reached out in thirst
Take Me in when I was homeless
When we stood face to face
Did you or I come first
Did you answer when I called you
Visit when I was in need the most
Or clothe My back when I was naked
For in the least of these
Is how you please Me most

At church you're a teacher and you sing in the choir
And your tithe is always right on key
You don't tend to gossip or bring others down
In fact, you've spoken so optimistically
You frown on the habits and the trends of the world
And you've said I'm the only way
And though your goals are all worthy
And your motives are good
There's something that I still have to say

Did you feed Me when I begged you
Filled My cup when I reached out in thirst
Take Me in when I was homeless
When we stood face to face
Did you or I come first
Did you answer when I called you
Visit when I was in need the most
Or clothe My back when I was naked
For in the least of these
Is how you please Me most

Did you feed Me when I begged you
Filled My cup when I reached out in thirst
Take Me in when I was homeless
When we stood face to face
Did you or I come first
Did you answer when I called you
Visit when I was in need the most
Or clothe My back when I was naked
For in the least of these
Is how you please Me most, oh...

In the least of these
Oh, in the least of these
Yeah, in the least of these
Is how you please Me most
