Text Based On Isaiah Chapter 1
Come now, and let us reason together,
saith the LORD: though your sins be as
scarlet, they shall be as white as snow;
though they be red like crimson, they
shall be as wool.
If Ye Know These Things
Just before we take the bread and wine,
There are lessons to be learned;
And our feet, the body’s lowest parts
Help us humbly to discern.
When we look to all our brethren
And esteem them, free from pride;
When we let His mind be in us,
He will be our strength and guide.
Refrain
“If ye call me Lord and Master,
Understand just what I do,
Ye should also wash each other’s feet,
As I have done for you.
I have given this example,
And will put thee to the test;
If ye know these things and do them,
Ye surely will be blessed.”
When we see the dirt upon our feet,
And our sin, right from the start,
Then we realize we need His blood
For a washing of our hearts.
Though our sins are just like scarlet,
They shall be as white as snow;
When we follow His example
More like Him we’re sure to grow.
Refrain
As our feet support us every day
To wherever we may go,
Humbly serve the many members
Of His body here below.
Help them carry all their burdens
And their purpose to fulfill;
For our Savior came to serve us
And to do our Father’s will.
Refrain
