Terry W. York has written a text based on Matthew 25:37-40 that captures the essence of this important scripture and makes it understandable for children. The haunting 6/8 melody by David Schwoebel expertly portrays the text. As the questions progress, the words and music gradually shift from minor to major, from 6/8 to 4/4, with increasing anticipation. With a sweeping response from Jesus' voice, the song moves into a lush, harmonic feel in two, with a resolved ending using a Picardy third. This piece is well worth the extra effort and will undoubtedly be a memorable moment of worship. The Teacher Resource (sold separately) includes helpful Song Teaching Steps and colorful Classroom Visuals.
