The big church sale began today So I had to bake Cookies, candy and some bread Things for me to take.
As I busied with my chores I heard a little knock With flour head to toe I found Jenny Jones from down the block.
"My Momma has no food today And I would like a bite Of a cookie or a glass of milk A piece of bread would be alright.
I'm sorry but I haven't time To fool with you today The big church sale will soon begin So please - now go away.
Then I hurried bout my work I took it down to sell But the long hot day and all the work Did not turn out so well.
So that night, I asked Him Lord why weren't you there? We need so many things for church And we know that you care.
And so the Lord, He said to me I was with you today I told you that a glass of milk Or piece of bread would be okay.
I said "Oh Lord, I'm sorry. I never knew that it was you." You know that I am willing To do all you ask me to."
Then tenderly, He told me My precious child, you see When you it not to the least of These You did it not, to me.
