[Faith the foundation sure remains]

Now abideth faith, hope, charity, these, &c. —xiii. 13.

Faith the foundation sure remains,
The anchor hope our soul sustains,
But rooted in Thy grace we prove,
The greatest of the three is love.
Faith, hope, and love Thou dost bestow,
To bless, and perfect us below;
Faith, hope, and love on earth are given,
Love only makes an heaven of heaven.
