Moments of kindness, of charity,
sometimes within really thinking
for these will we stand before God
of so is the message the Lord gave the disciples
for it wasn’t the big things, it was the small,
the moments of grace
they would bestow on the last, the lost,
the least of those
with whom they came in contact
that was the measure of their love,
their walking in grace
We are not saved, justified by our acts
but so will the measure of our life be
the truth of who we are
what we believe
