If I could write the future in the sky. . .


If I could speak with tongues of angels
If I could write the future in the sky
If I could know the wisdom of the ages
But have no love what would it mean

If I have faith, faith to move a mountain
If I give all I own to the poor
If I surrender my body to the flames
But have no love I have nothing

~ Rebecca St James's rewording of 1 Corinthians 13, the famous "Love Chapter" of the Bible. From the song For the Love of God from the album Transform. (Excellent album, BTW.)

    Haha yeah, it is an awesome album. I love how it has the orchestral 'introduction' and then jumps into the U2-esque riff on For the Love of God. . . it's probably one of my favourite RSJ songs! :-)

    violin music... sigh...
