Whatsoever You Do To The Least of My People OLPS OCD 2019 Dani

Описание: Also known previously as Whatsoever You Do To The Least of My Brothers

This social justice themed hymn was written by American Roman Catholic priest, teacher, playwright, folk-composer and author Willard F Jabusch (1930-2018).

It was composed in 1965 for a youth Mass in Chicago, Illinois (USA) where Jabusch was working. It is based on Matthew 25:35-36, 40 (Christ's story about sheep and goats at the last judgement, and Jesus teaching that the only grounds for judgement is whether love has been shown to least of God's people. The latter verses extend these ideas to the social issues of the day.

First published - with 11 verses - in the Hymnal for Young Christians (1966) Volume 1, it was been included in many other hymnals and was re-published in 1982. Today the rights are administered by by OCP Publications.

The original text was "“Whatsoever you do to the least of my brothers", but more recent publications show it as “Whatsoever you do to the least of my people" (ref).

With irregular meter, the tune is also called WHATSOEVER YOU DO. The original setting was in the key of D, with time signature 3/4. The first few notes in this key are DF A A B A.

It is one of the two hymns quoted in Malcolm Muggeridge's 1971 book about Mother Theresa, Something beautiful for God.
