Face Of Jesus

Face of Jesus

The first shall be last, the last shall be first
But what of those who hunger and thirst
Humble in spirit, lifted above
Lowly in status, equally loved
This is the face of Jesus, hear the silent plea
Look in the eyes of Jesus, the least of these
When did I see you hungry or cold
Hopeless and empty, fragile and old
If someone told me you were alone
I would have helped you if I had know
Yours was the face of Jesus, and you looked at me
And I saw the eyes of Jesus, who died for me
When did I see you suffering pain
It’s not a good time, ask me again
When I’m not busy, then I can try
I never get to it, I don’t know why
When I see the face of Jesus, and I hear the cry
I see the eyes of Jesus, will I pass him by
I see the face of Jesus, and I hear the cry
I see the eyes of Jesus, will I pass him by
