Analysis of Homeless, Poor and Needy
I met a homeless man today. He told me that he slept under a tree, And for a moment I thought about JESUS, and how he died for me. The homeless man asked for spare change; He said he had been homeless a few days, And in my mind I tried to arrange; How he looked, and what he wore. Humbly he asked for change nothing more. I reached in my wallet and took out a bill, Then I remembered Golgotha hill. The homeless man said thank you and GOD bless you, Then he turned and slowly walked away. Now, I can truly say the LORD will provide. Sinner you can't run nor can you hide: I hear my LORD saying "if you do it to the least of these, you have done it unto me."
