Lyrics to 1
Corinthians 13
1 Though I speak with the
tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am
become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and
understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I
have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and
have not charity, I am nothing.
3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor,
and though I give my body to be burned, and have not
charity, it profiteth me nothing.
4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity
envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed
up,
5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own,
is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all
things, endureth all things.
8 Charity never faileth: but whether there be
prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be
tongues, they shall cease; whether there be
knowledge, it shall vanish away.
9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.
10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that
which is in part shall be done away.
11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood
as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a
man, I put away childish things.
12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face
to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even
as also I am known.
13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but
the greatest of these is charity.7

Corinthians 13:4-8a
4 Love suffereth long, and
is kind; love envieth not; love vaunteth not itself, is not puffed
up,
5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not
easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things,
endureth all things.
8a Love never faileth:

musical
accompaniment
or a studio
recorded
backing CD.

James version of the Bible. The shorter
version contains only the more popular wedding lyrics of
vs. 4-8a, and substitutes the word love for charity.
It plays for 2 minutes 13 seconds and would be an
excellent selection for weddings.
