If I speak the words of the wisest in the world
But I don't have love ... My words are useless
If I know all things and understand God's mysteries
But I don't share love
I am nothing
Faith is a virtue
And a certain gift from God
Hope is a blessing, turns our grief to forgot
These things remain, love lights the way
The greatest of these is love
If my faith can move the mountains that I choose
But I don't have love... My faith means nothing
And if I'm hope to those who lack in food and clothes
But I leave out love, I gain nothing
Faith is our rescue
Our works are mounds of dirt
God wants us mindful, keep our selfish eyes alert
'Cause there are those in need
There are hopeful souls to feed
The greatest of these is love
The greatest of these is love
Faith is a virtue
And a certain gift from God
Hope is a blessing, turns our grief to forgot
These things remain, love lights the way
The greatest of these is love
The greatest of these is love
If my righteousness rivals all who've ever lived
But I don't have love
My life means nothing
And if I tithe tenfold to build a church of gold
But hold back on love
My worth is nothing
Faith is our lighthouse
Shines a light to guide the lost
If we don't follow then it seems that we've forgot
That hope, faith remain... love lights the way
The greatest of these is love
