|
<p>Gracious Spirit, Holy Ghost,<br>
|
|
Taught by Thee we covet most<br>
|
|
Of Thy gifts of Pentecost<br>
|
|
Holy, heavenly Love.</p>
|
|
<p>Faith, that mountains could remove,<br>
|
|
Tongues of earth or heaven above,<br>
|
|
Knowledge—all things—empty prove,<br>
|
|
Without heavenly Love.</p>
|
|
<p>Though I as a martyr bleed,<br>
|
|
Give my goods the poor to feed,<br>
|
|
All is vain—if Lord I need;<br>
|
|
Therefore, give us Love.</p>
|
|
<p>Love is kind, and suffers long<br>
|
|
Love is meek, and thinks no wrong,<br>
|
|
Love that death itself more strong;<br>
|
|
Therefore, give us Love.</p>
|
|
<p>Prophecy will fade away,<br>
|
|
Melting in the light of day,<br>
|
|
Love will ever with us stay;<br>
|
|
Therefore, give us Love.</p>
|
|
<p>Faith will vanish into sight;<br>
|
|
Hope be emptied in delight;<br>
|
|
Love in heaven will shine more bright;<br>
|
|
Therefore, give us Love.</p>
|
|
<p>Faith and Hope and Love we see<br>
|
|
Joining hand in hand agree;<br>
|
|
But the greatest of the three,<br>
|
|
And the best, is Love.</p>
|
|
<p>From the overshadowing<br>
|
|
Of Thy gold and silver ring<br>
|
|
Shed on us, who to Thee sing,<br>
|
|
Holy, heavenly Love.</p>
