If I can speak in the tongues of
Men and angels
And have not love, these words are
All but God's own
If I can prophecy, and know all
Mysteries and secrets
And if I have the faith to move the
Mighty mountains
But if I have not love,
My words are worthless and empty
If I have not love,
My true devotion is nothing
If I have not love,
There is no gain for the efforts I make
To serve You, Lord
If I can give up all that
I posses
And give it all to the needy
Souls who have less
If I can sacrifice
My body to the flames
I will have gained nothing more than
Burned up ashes
But if I have not love,
My words are worthless and empty
If I have not love,
My true devotion is nothing
If I have not love,
There is no gain for the efforts I make
To serve You, Lord
