1 Mucho más que el don de lenguas,
más que el de profetizar,
o la fe que mueve montes,
es amor el don sin par:
concedenos tu amor.
2 El amor es comprensivo,
el amor es tierno y le al;
el amor siempre es paciente,
el amor no busca el mal:
concedenos tu amor.
3 El amor nunca se irrita,
el amor no es descortés;
el amor no es egoísta,
el amor es sin doblez:
concedenos tu amor.
4 Aunque el don de proficía
o de lenguas cesará,
cuando Cristo venga en gloria,
el amor ya reinará:
concedenos tu amor.
