Hope, Faith and Amour

16 August 2006


Just like of love
or was that too much
To love, and like
to want and need
Oh how it does come
to give, to hope and succeed

Happiness, was that for real
where your eyes did greet
Heavenly and homely
would God make that day
The day you and I did walk
the day our hands touched in gold

Dear God, please do I pray
this love of love, a desire present
To want, to need, to have
is that asking too much of You

To know she was there
to see her heart beating in time
One hand, two hands, little hands a well
children and happiness, those wishes upon the moon
For her, for heaven, for you and I in spirit and more
This love this destination, hope, faith and amour


“Wherefore, if a man have faith he must needs have hope;
for without faith there cannot be any hope.”
MORONI 7: 42 BOOK OF MORMON

I Corinthians 13:13
And now abide faith, hope, love, these three;  but the greatest of these is love.

"And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity."
1  Corinthians 13:13 KJV

I prefer this version because the word "charity" is more fitting to the pure love of Christ

While at times it is best not to over use what may have been quoted by me elsewhere

Since 1 Corinthians, chapter 13 is one of my favourite sections of the Holy Bible of all time
