And all the holy angel's with Him
Then shall He sit on His glorious throne
And He will divide the nations before Him
As 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 ye, blessed of my Father
Inherit the Kingdom I have prepared for You
From the foundation of the world

For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat
I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink
I was naked and you clothed me
I was a stranger and you invited me in
I was sick and I was in prison and you came to me
Thank you, enter into your rest

And they shall answer Him, yes, they shall answer Him
And they'll say, Lord, when?
When were You hungry, Lord
And we gave You something to eat?
Lord, when were You thirsty? I can't remember
And we gave You drink?
Huh, when were You naked, Lord, and we clothed You?
And Lord, when were You a stranger and we invited You in?

I mean, we invited lots of people in, Lord
I could never forget that face
And Lord, when were You sick and we visited You?
Or in prison, and we came to You? Lord, tell us?
In as much as You did it to the least of my brethren
You've done it unto me
Oh yes, as much as you've done it to the very least
Of my brethren, you've done it
You've done it unto me, enter into your rest

Then He shall turn to those on His left, the goats
Depart from me, You cursed ones, into everlasting fire
Prepared for the devil and His angels

For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat
I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink
I was naked out in the cold, in exposure and you sent me away
I was a stranger and I knocked at your door
But you didn't open, you told me to go away

I was sick, racked in pain upon my bed
And I begged and prayed and pleaded
That You'd come but You didn't
I was in prison and I rotted there
I'd prayed that You'd come
I heard Your programs on the radio
I read Your magazines but You never came

Depart from me
Lord, there must be some mistake, when?
Lord, I mean, when were You hungry, Lord
And we didn't give You something to eat?
And Lord, when were You thirsty and we didn't give You drink?
I mean, that's not fair, well, would You like something now?
Would one of the angels like to go out
And get the Lord a hamburger and a coke?
Oh, You're not hungry, yeah, I lost my appetite too

Uh, Lord, uh, Lord, when were You naked
I mean, Lord, that's not fair either, Lord
We didn't know what size You wear
Oh Lord, when were You a stranger, Lord
You weren't one of those creepy people
Who used to come to the door, were You?

Oh Lord, that wasn't our ministry Lord
We just didn't feel led, You know?
Lord, when were You sick? What did you have, anyway?
Well, at least it wasn't fatal, oh, it was?
I'm sorry, Lord, I would have sent You a card
Lord, just on last thing we want to know
When were You in prison, Lord? What were You in for anyway?
I had a friend in Levenworth

Enough, in as much as you've not done it
Unto the least of my brethren
You've not done it unto me
In as much as you've not done it
Unto the least of my brethren
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 friends, the only difference between the sheep
And the goats, according to this scripture
Is what they did and didn't do

And all the holy angel's with Him
Then shall He sit on His glorious throne
