for KING & COUNTRY - The Proof Of Your Love From the album Proof of Your Love (Monologue Mix) - Single
If I sing but don't have loveI waste my breathe with every songI bring, an empty voiceA hollow noiseIf I speak with a silver tongueConvince a crowd but don't have loveI leave a bitter tasteWith every word I say(Chorus)So let my life be the proofThe proof of Your loveLet my love look like YouAnd what You're made ofHow you lived, how You diedLove is sacrificeSo let my life be the proofThe proof of Your loveIf I give to a needy soulBut don't have love then who is poorIt seems all the povertyIs found in meChorusOoh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ohWhen it's all said and doneOoh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ohWhen we sing our final songOnly love remainsOnly love remainsIf I speak with human eloquence and angelic ecstasy but don't love, I'm nothing but the creaking of a rusty gate. If I speak God's Word with power, revealing all his mysteries and making everything plain as day, and if I have faith that says to a mountain, "Jump," and it jumps, but I don't love, I'm nothing. If I give everything I own to the poor and even go to the stake to be burned as a martyr, but I don't love, I've gotten nowhere. So, no matter what I say, what I believe, and what I do, I'm bankrupt without love. (1 Corinthians 13:1-7, The Message)Chorus(Music & Lyrics: Joel Smallbone / Luke Smallbone / Mia Fieldes / Jonathan Lee / Fred Williams / Ben Glover)
