“Charity Never Fails,” Ensign, June 1978, 29
Charity Never Fails
Like the freshening of rainfall on the parching ground
Or the early warming sun in winter’s cold,
So is charity a miracle to thirsting hearts,
And the gift of love a blessedness untold.
For love is patience, love is kindness,
Love is sharing hand and heart;
Love is thoughtfulness of others;
Love is the never-failing part.
Charity means being humble,
Bringing ease to others’ hurt;
Charity is never failing;
Charity brings peace of heart.
Like the fragrance of the blossom in the early spring,
Like the bloom that bursts in beauty all around,
So is sharing and forgiving and a gladdened soul,
Where hope and faith and charity abound.
