These are the words
These are the words of our Lord
For when you love someone with your whole heart you will know:
Love is patient
Love is kind
Love does not envy
Love does not boast
Love is not proud
Love is not rude, not self seeking, not easy to anger.

Love will not keep record of wrongs,
Does not delight with evil but rejoices with the truth.
Love always protects
Always trusts
Always hopes
Always preserves
Love never fails.

In daily life we do have faith
Walking with the Lord, we do have hope
Surrounding us, we do have love
And the greatest of these is love - greatest is love.

You may speak with the voice of an Angel,
But without love, you may sound like
The resounding of the cymbal,
It's not the sound echoing from your heart with your true love.

Love is patient
Love is kind
Love does not envy
Love does not boast
Love is not proud
Love is not rude, not self seeking, not easy to anger.

Love will not keep record of wrongs,
Does not delight with evil but rejoices with the truth.
Love always protects
Always trusts
Always hopes
Always preserves
Love never fails.

Love always protects
Always trusts
Always hopes
Always preserves
Love never fails.
