KEITH GREEN - The Sheep & The Goats lyrics

And when the son man comesand all the holy angels with him

Then shall he sit on his glorious throne

And he will divide the nations before himas a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.

And she shall put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left

And he shall say to the sheep; come yeblessed of my father

Inherit the kingdom I have prepared for you from the foundation of the world

For I was hungryand you gave me something to eat

I was thirstyand you gave me something to drink

I was nakedand you clothed me

I was a strangerand you invited me in

I was sickand I was in prisonand you came to me.

Thank you! enter into your rest.

And they shall answer himyesthey shall answer him

And they'll saylordwhen?

When were you hungry lordand we gave you something to eat?

Lordwhen were you thirsty? I can't remember. and we gave you drink?

Huhwhen were you naked lordand we clothed you?

And lordwhen were you a stranger and we invited you in?

I meanwe invited lots of people in lord. I could never forget that face.

And lordwhen were you sick and we visited you?

Or in prisonand we came to you? lordtell us?

In as much as you did it to the least of my bretherenyou've done it unto me.

Oh yesas much as you've done it to the very least of my bretherenyou've done it

You've done it unto me. enter into your rest.

Then he shall turn to those on his leftthe goats.

Depart from meyou cursed onesinto everlasting fire

Prepared for the devil and his angels.

For I was hungryand you gave me nothing to eat

I was thirstyand you gave me nothing to drink

I was nakedout in the coldin exposureand you sent me away

I was a strangerand I knocked at your door

But you didn't openyou told me to go away

I was sickracked in pain upon my bed

And I beggedand prayedand pleaded that you'd comebut you didn't

I was in prisonand I rotted there

I'd prayed that you'd come.

I heard your programs on the radioI read your magazinesbut you never came.

Depart from me!!!

Lordthere must be some mistakewhen?

LordI meanwhen were you hungry lord and we didn't give you something to eat?

And lordwhen were you thirstyand we didn't give you drink?

I meanthat's not fairwellwould you like something now?

Would one of the angels like to go out and get the lord a hamburger and a coke?

Ohyou're not hungryyeahI lost my appetite too.

Enough!

In as much as you've not done it unto the least of my bretheren

You've not done it unto me.

In as much as you've not done it unto the least of my bretheren

You've not done it unto me. depart from me.

And these shall go away into everlasting fire.

But the righteous into eternal life!

And my friendsthe only difference between the sheep and the goatsaccording to this scripture

Is what they didand didn't do!!
