If the angels fill my mouth,
Yet do not have love, I am but a sound.
If I prophesy and understand all things,
If mountains shake by my faith,
without Love I am nothing at all.
Refrain:
Love is patient; love is kind.
Love rejoices in the truth.
It bears all things, believes all things,
It hopes all things, endures all things.
Love never fails.
2. If I give away everything I own, Give my body to be burned,
Yet do not have love, I gain nothing more.
Prophecies will cease;
tongues will be silent.
Knowledge will be no more, the partial pass away.
Refrain
3. When I was a child, I talked, thought, and live like a child.
But now that I have grown, I have put these things aside.
My knowledge is imperfect now, then I'll know as I am known:
that faith, hope and love remain, and the greatest of these is love.
David Haas
