Barbara Butcher’s wedding song Love is Patient, Love is Kind presents I Corinthians 13 elegantly with several options. The long version includes a Scripture reading for the singer or a lector; the short version has an accompaniment interlude. Both versions have very accessible parts for eight handbells.
The score package includes both the long and short versions, with a full score and separate parts for each.
Accompaniment MP3s are available for each version; there are backing tracks with piano and handbells, or just piano if you have your own ringers.
