IF I HAVE NOT CHARITY
I Corinthians 13
Dwight Armstrong
1.
Tho'
I
speak with tongues of men, Tho'
I
speak as an- gels,
2.
Tho'
I
know all
mys - ter - ies, Tho'
I
have all knowl - edge,
3.
Char-

ty will
suf- fer long, Char - i
-
ty
is kind,

Wheth - er there be proph - e -cies, Wheth-er there be knowl - edge,
If
I
have not char- i
-
ty
I
am be -come
th~
as no - mg.
If
I
have not char- i -
ty
I
am be -come as noth - ing.
En- vies not nor vaunts it- self, Be- hav- eth not un-seem- ly.
But re - joic- eth in
the truth; Be-lieves and bears all things;
These shall like -wise pass
But char - i -
ty
re-main - eth.
I
be- come as sound - ing brass, Or
a
tink-ling cym- bal;
Tho'
I
give all
I
pos-sess, Let my bod- y burn;
Seek- eth not to have her way, Nor is
eas- 'ly an- gered;
Hopes all things, en-dures all things; Nev-er think- eth e
-
vil.
Faith and hope and char- i
-
ty;
All of these a- bide;
~
With the gift
of proph- e
-
cy, Still
I
am as noth-ing.
If
I
have not char
-
i
-
ty, Then
I
am as noth- ing.
If
I
have not char - i
-
ty,
Then
I
am as noth-ing.
If
I
have not char - i
-
ty,
Then
I
am as noth- ing.
But
a- mong the three of these, Char - i -
ty
is great -est.
