Chapter 13 Lyrics

Above The Golden State - Chapter 13

1 If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels,
but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or
a clanging cymbal. 2 If I have the gift of prophecy,
and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I
have all faith, so as to remove mountains,
but do not have love, I am nothing.
3 And if I give all my possessions to feed the poor,
and if I surrender my body to be burned,
but do not have love, it profits me nothing.
4 Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous;
love does not brag and is not arrogant,
5 does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own,
is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong
suffered, 6 does not rejoice in unrighteousness,Above The Golden State - Chapter 13 - http://motolyrics.com/above-the-golden-state/chapter-13-lyrics.html
but rejoices with the truth; 7 bears all things,
believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
8 Love never fails; but if there are gifts of prophecy,
they will be done away; if there are tongues,
they will cease; if there is knowledge,
it will be done away. 9 For we know in part and we
prophesy in part; 10 but when the perfect comes,
the partial will be done away.
11 When I was a child, I used to speak like a child,
think like a child, reason like a child; when I became
a man, I did away with childish things.
12 For now we see in a mirror dimly,
but then face to face; now I know in part,
but then I will know fully just as I also have been
fully known. 13 But now faith,
hope, love, abide these three; but the greatest of these is love.
