[Verse] If I speak with angel tongues perhaps even sing If I fathom all the secrets but still miss one thing If I give all I possess see it just fade away I am nothing without love's gentle way [Verse 2] Love is patient love is kind through and through Doesn't envy doesn't boast just stays true Keeps no record of wrongs from the past Always trusts always hopes makes joy last [Chorus] When the world falls apart love remains Through the storm through the heartache and pains It's our light in darkness, shows the way Love never fails never goes astray [Verse 3] Prophecies may cease and tongues may grow still Knowledge will fade but love never will It's a symphony that plays in our hearts Binding us together when everything parts [Verse 4] When I was a child I spoke like a boy Now I've grown up love is my joy Face to face we'll know in full bloom Perfect love chasing away the gloom [Bridge] Three things remain faith hope and love's glow But the greatest of these we all know It's the fire that never dies out The echo in our souls without a doubt
