1. We humbly bow to our God in prayer,

That all his qualities we may share.

But most important of all those things

Is love, which having his spirit brings.

We may be talented, wise, or bold,

But we are nothing if love grows cold.

We pray for love that is warm and true,

Revealed in all that we say and do.

2. Love looks for ways to give graciously

And thinks of others unselfishly.

Love never harbors a hateful thought,

Forgives our brothers, as Jesus taught.

Love helps us patiently suffer wrong,

Bears heavy loads when it’s really strong.

Through ev’ry trial let love prevail;

It bears all things; it will never fail.

1. Ọ khẹke n’ima gha muẹn ye ’rhun’,

N’ima sẹtin gha mw’ahoẹmwọmwa.

Ọna keghi re nọ hiunsi sẹ

Vb’akpa ọgh’Ivbiotue Kristi hia.

Degh’ima na gha mwẹ irẹnmwi,

Vben’imai na mwẹ ahoẹmwọmwa,

Emwi kẹkan ẹr’ima wa khin.

Gia gha rhi’ahoẹmwọmwa maemwa hia.

2. Ọmwa nọ gele mw’ahoẹmwọmwa

Keghi wa zemwiobọ ne ’mwa hia.

Ọmwa vberriọ keghi mwẹ ekhọe

Ọgh’ayabọ kevbe ’kh’itohan.

Ọmwa vberriọ sẹtin mu wuegbe;

Ọ keghi mwẹ ekhọe nọ furre.

N’ọmwa ya sẹtin ziengbe ’danmwẹ.
