WHO WILL ...? NOT I SAYS ... !

Who will scrub the Banquet floors?
Not I says the Proud Peacock !
Not I says the Stubborn Mule !
Not I says the Unclean Pig !

Who will bake the Banquet Bread ?
Not I says the Fearful chicken !
Not I says the Timid Mouse !
Not I says the Lazy Sheep !

Who will tread the Grapes For Wine ?
Not I says the Fickle cat !
Not I says the Silly Goose !
Not I says the Pushy Goat !

Who will serve the Great King's Table ?
Not I says the Lying Serpent !
Not I says the Faithless Dog !
Not I says the Golden Calf !

Who will come and Eat the Great King's Bread and Drink the Great King's Wine ?

I will says the Stubborn mule & I will says the Faithless Dog & I will says the Pushy Goat & I will says the Lazy Sheep & I will says the Unclean Pig.......................... !
We all will says the foolish crowd !

NO you won't says the Great King !  

Where were you when the floors were being scrubbed in those dark lonely nights...
Where were you in the heat of the vineyard gathering the grapes for harvest and crushing My grapes for wine...
Where were you in the toil of the kitchen, baking My Bread and preparing My Feast....

You were not willing !

I have others who are not of this fold, I will go out into the field and gather them in to My Feast.
