Overheard at Booth 1: Faith Hope & Charity

#Agradecida
FAITH HOPE CHARITY
KEY G
VERSES
/D /G A
BRIDGE
/Em /G A

V1
When I was a child
I spoke just as a child
But now I am not child
And I will put away childish things

V2
But even still we see
Through a glass, dimly,
Even though I know, one day
I’ll know Him as clearly as He knows me.

V3
And the three greatest qualities
are Faith Hope and Charity
But the Love that gives and asks for nothing
Is the greatest love, the greatest of all Three

Bridge
When you are a stranger in a strange land
there is something you should know
It does no good to gain the world
if you have to sell your soul
When you travel door to door
to tell the world of the Good News
If they refuse to receive, then just leave
and shake their dust from off your shoes.

V4
I am saved by grace
I will feel His warm embrace
When I see Him face to face
and I shall know 
even as also 
as I am known



Inspired by Death Cab for Cutie "You Are a Tourist"
Kept the drum beat, used the basic chord structure
Still working on the vocal phrasing, which may be similar.  
Need to know how much of the melody will be considered fair usage.
