What You Do to Them

[Verse 1] I’ve seen Your name on banners flying high, Heard it shouted from the stands. But if we raise Your name in anger’s fire, Do we really know Your hands? You touched the leper, loved the poor, And washed the feet of men who’d fall — So how can I claim I’m close to You If I turn my back at all? [Chorus] What you do to them, you do to Me, Every heart you break, every soul you see. It’s not the songs, it’s the life you live — Love’s the proof that your heart will give. One day you’ll see, when the truth is told — You’ll answer not for words, but the love you showed. [Verse 2] We wear the cross like colors worn, As if You need a team to win. But You never asked for flags or sides, You asked for mercy deep within. You said the hungry, the lost, the least, Are Yours to cherish and defend — So when we scorn the ones You love, We pierce the heart that will not end. [Chorus] What you do to them, you do to Me, Every kindness counts for eternity. The crown You give is not of gold, But hearts made gentle, true, and bold. We’ll all be held by the grace we gave, When we stand before the One who saves. [Bridge] No law or creed can take the place Of mercy’s hand or kindness’ face. The final measure, the holy test, Is how we treated all the rest. [Final Chorus] What you do to them, you do to Me, Every act of love is eternity. And when that day of truth arrives, May compassion be the proof of our lives. What you do to them… you do to Me.
