Truer Than the Red, White and Blue
“When the Son of
man comes in his glory,
and all the
angels with him,
then he will sit
on his glorious throne.
Before him will
be gathered all the NATIONS,
and he will
separate them one from another
as a shepherd
separates the SHEEP from the GOATS,
and he will place
the SHEEP at his right hand,
but the GOATS at the
left.
Then the King
will say to those at his right hand,
‘Come, O BLESSED of my FATHER,
inherit the KINGDOM prepared
for you from the foundation of the world;
for I was hungry
and YOU GAVE ME FOOD,
I was thirsty and
YOU GAVE ME DRINK,
I was a stranger
and YOU WELCOMED ME,
I was naked and YOU CLOTHED ME,
I was sick and YOU VISITED ME,
I was in prison
and YOU CAME TO ME.
Truly, I say to
you,
AS YOU DID IT TO ONE OF THE LEAST OF THESE MY
BRETHREN,
YOU DID IT TO ME.’
Then he will say
to those at his left hand,
‘Depart from me,
you CURSED,
into the ETERNAL FIRE prepared
for the DEVIL and his angels;
for I was hungry
and YOU GAVE ME NO
FOOD,
I was thirsty and
YOU GAVE ME NO
DRINK,
I was a stranger
and YOU DID NOT
WELCOME ME,
naked and YOU DID NOT CLOTHE ME,
sick and in
prison and YOU DID NOT
VISIT ME.’
Truly, I say to
you,
AS YOU DID IT NOT
TO ONE OF THE LEAST OF THESE,
YOU DID IT NOT TO
ME.’
And they will go
away into ETERNAL
PUNISHMENT,
but the righteous
into ETERNAL LIFE.”
Let your deeds show that you pledge allegiance to
those who are hungry, thirsty, strangers, naked, sick, in prison and to the
King for whom they stand, one Christ Jesus, indivisible, with
liberty and justice for all.
Turn.
Love. Repeat.
