Notes About The Poem

 Still you took me in,took  me in
You gave me
You gave me charity, hospitality, and love  <jelsr>

You Gave Me Charity, Hospitality, and Love

You gave me charity, hospitality, and love 
You gave me charity, hospitality, and love 
You gave me charity, hospitality, and love 
I was hungry, you gave me food
You gave me meat to eat
I was thirsty you gave me drink, that's sweet
And I was a stranger you took me in
Housed me for a moment placed a roof over my head
Naked and shamed shoe less you clothes me
I was torn weary and sick
Still you took me in,took  me in
You gave me 
You gave me charity, hospitality, and love 
You gave me charity, hospitality, and love 
You gave me charity, hospitality, and love 

I was in prison and you came to me
And as a stranger you took me in
You hugged me, shown love toward me
You gave me monies, encouragements, food and more, it's true
I was torn, weary, and sick
Yet you told me I was yet blessed

I was hungry, you gave me food
You gave me meat to eat
I was thirsty you gave me drink, that's sweet
And I was a stranger you took me in
Housed me for a moment placed a roof over my head
Naked and shamed shoe less you clothes me
I was torn weary and sick
Still you took me in,took  me in
You gave me 
You gave me charity, hospitality, and love 
You gave me charity, hospitality, and love 
You gave me charity, hospitality, and love
