Author: Bishop Wordsworth Hymnal: CH1935 #396 (1935) First Line: Faith, and hope, and love, we see Refrain First Line: Greater than faith, greater than hope Lyrics: 1 Faith, and hope, and love, we see,
Joining hand in hand, agree,
But the greatest of the three,
And the best is love.
Chorus:
Greater than faith, greater than hope,
Is love, heav'nly love;
The greatest thing in all the world,
Is love, heav'nly love.
2 Love is kind and suffers long,
Love is meek, and thinks no wrong,
Love than death itself more strong;
Lord, give us that love. [Chorus]
3 Faith that mountains could remove,
Tongues of earth or heav'n above,
Knowledge, all things empty prove,
Without heav'nly love. [Chorus]
4 Prophecy will fade away,
Melting in the light of day;
Love will ever with us stay,
Give us heav'nly love. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [Faith, and hope, and love, we see]
Greatest Of All
