A READING FROM THE LETTER TO THE CORINTHIANS
(FIRST READER ONLY)

IF I SPEAK IN HUMAN OR ANGELIC TONGUES/

BUT DO NOT HAVE LOVE/

I AM A RESOUNDING GONG, OR A CLASHING CYMBAL./

IF I UNDERSTAND ALL MYSTERIES AND HAVE ALL KNOWLEDGE/

IF I HAVE THE FAITH TO MOVE MOUNTAINS/

BUT DO NOT HAVE LOVE/

I AM NOTHING./

LOVE IS PATIENT./

LOVE IS KIND./

LOVE IS NOT JEALOUS./

LOVE BEARS ALL THINGS/

BELIEVES ALL THINGS/

HOPES ALL THINGS/

ENDURES ALL THINGS./
