You Did It for Me

You Did It for Me

(Matthew 25:34-40)

  1. Other sheep Jesus has, and they serve alongside

    those anointed to be Christ’s heavenly bride.

    All the things that are done

    for their comfort and aid

    are things he considers that must be repaid.

    (CHORUS)

    “If you comforted them, you comforted me.

    If you did it for them, you did it for me.

    Your labors for them were your labors for me.

    You did it for them; you did it for me.

    If you did it for them, you did it for me.”

  2. “Yes, you comforted me in my hunger and thirst,

    and whatever my need, you came to me first.”

    “Tell us, when did we do this?”

    these ones will reply.

    The King will then answer them, telling them why:

    (CHORUS)

    “If you comforted them, you comforted me.

    If you did it for them, you did it for me.

    Your labors for them were your labors for me.

    You did it for them; you did it for me.

    If you did it for them, you did it for me.”

  3. “You’ve been loyal to me, doing works that are fine,

    as you preach alongside these brothers of mine.”

    So the King will then say

    to the sheep on his right:

    “Inherit the earth and perfection of life.”

    (CHORUS)

    “If you comforted them, you comforted me.

    If you did it for them, you did it for me.

    Your labors for them were your labors for me.

    You did it for them; you did it for me.

    If you did it for them, you did it for me.”
