When saw we Thee a-hun­gered, Lord,
And mi­nis­tered unto Thee?
Inasmuch as ye have done it
To the least of these,
Ye have done it unto Me.

Refrain

Blessèd les­son that we all may learn,
Blessèd plau­dit that we all may earn.

When saw we Thee athirst, O Lord,
And mi­nis­tered un­to Thee?
Inasmuch as ye have done it
To the least of these,
Ye have done it unto Me.

Refrain

When saw we Thee a stran­ger, sick,
Or in pri­son, and came to Thee?
Inasmuch as ye have done it
To the least of these,
Ye have done it unto Me.
