Greater Than Faith

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It wasn’t faith or prophecy

That redeemed us from sin

Though both have value, without doubt,

In the vast world of men,

 

But it was loved that paid the price.

For Christ so loved the world

He stepped down from heaven’s bright throne

With loving grace unfurled.

 

Though I can take the tallest peak

And hurl it to sea,

A faith that strong will serve me ill,

If there’s no love in me.

 

Lord, I will stand strong in the faith

With which You fill my soul,

But I know that it is Your love

That truly makes me whole.

 

1 Corinthians 13:2

If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.
