Charity

She dries the tears and wipes the scrapes
Of the ups and downs below,
Compassion close to God's above,
For all the world to know.

Her patience great, her kindness pure,
Many sufferings alone,
She does it not for wealth or fame,
She seeketh not her own.

Bears the burdens of her family
Through pain and grief she sings,
Her heart is full of gratitude
For the pleasure that it brings.

Believes and hopes, endures all things
To the end it might be shown,
Next to our Saviour Christ above
The greatest gift we've ever known.

Charity, Charity sing it's praise aloud ,
'Twil bring us through the trials of life,
Through every stormy cloud.
God says the greatest gift he gave,
Next to Jesus Christ above,
Is the gift of Charity,
Her other name is Love.

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