TRIP THROUGH YOUR WIRES

Still shakin', still in pain
You put me back back together again
I was cold and you clothed me, honey
I was down, and you lifted me, honey
Angel, angel or devil?
I was thirsty, and you wet my lips
Jesus: "When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and the holy angels with Him... he will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left. Then the King will say to those on His right hand, 'Come, you blessed of My father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me." Matthew 25:31-36 NKJV

Jesus: "Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, 'Lord, when did we see You hungry... or thirsty... or naked... or... sick, or in prison, and come to You?' And the King will answer them, 'Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.'" Matthew 25:37-40 NKJV
I was broken, bent out of shape. I was naked in the clothes you made
Lips were dry, throat like rust
You gave me shelter from the heat and the dust
You have been a refuge for the poor, a refuge for the needy in their distress, a shelter from the storm and a shade from the heat.... the heat of the desert. Isaiah 25:4-5 NIV
