When Lord did we ever see you...?

When Lord did we ever see you hungry and feed you?

I'm famished!
I could eat a scabby horse!
The cupboard is bare.
We know where our next meal's coming from
and where it's going.
But do we know the cost?
The poor wait ,hungry for change.
Jesus waits with them

When Lord did we ever see you thirsty and give you a drink?

What're you having?
It's your round!
I only drink to be sociable.
Make mine a double!
We take it for granted, drinking,
whatever we want, whenever we want.
Some live to drink,
others drink to live!
The poor wait, thirsty for justice.
Jesus waits with them.

When Lord did we see you a stranger and welcome you in our homes?

Who's that over there?
The new boy, the incomer.
Never set eyes on him before.
Not sure I like the look of him!
We like to stay safe,
comfortable in the circle of our friends.
The strangers wait for welcome.
Jesus waits with them.
