Let me be patient let me be kind,
make me unselfish without being blind.
Though I may suffer I'll envy it not,
and endure what comes
cause she's all that I got.

Now I may have faith to make mountains fall;
but if I lack love then I am nothin' at all.
I can give away everything I possess,
but left without love then I have no happiness.
I know I'm imperfect
and not without sin;
but now that I'm older all childish things end.

I'll never be jealous,
and I won't be too proud;
cause love is not boastful
and love is not loud.
Tell her I need her,
everything' gonna be alright.

Now I may have wisdom and knowledge on Earth
but if I speak wrong then what is it worth?
See what we now know is nothing compared
to the love that was shown when our lives were spared.

It'll be alright
