I could write a melody
That all of heaven's choir sings
But if I don't have love
Then it means nothing
I can spit out some holy word
Something that you've never heard
But If I don't have love
It means nothing
If I can't love my neighbor like I love myself
If I won't move when my brother cries out for help
If I'm too proud to forgive before the sun goes down
Then this life that I've been living what does it mean now?
At best it all means nothing
Without love it all means nothing
I can dine with kings and queens
My name go down in history
But if I don't have love it means nothing
So take the old and make me new
Show me how to love like You
'Cause if I don't have love it means nothing
If I can't love my neighbor like I love myself (eh)
If I won't move when my brother cries out for help (eh eh)
If I'm too proud to forgive before the sun goes down
Then this life that I've been living what does it mean now?
At best it all means nothing
Oh God, without love it all means nothing (oh)
At best it all means nothing (Jesus)
Without love it all means nothing (oh yeah)
I don't want to sound like a crashing cymbal (yeah)
I don't want to be some empty noise
I'm down on my knees, Lord I surrender
Jesus help me to love, with a love like Yours
I don't want to sound like a crashing cymbal (oh no, no, no)
I don't want to be some empty noise
Oh, I'm down on my knees, Lord I surrender
Oh, help me to love, with a love like Yours (with a love like Yours)
And then it'll all mean something (that's what I want)
I want it to all mean something (Jesus)
And then it'll all mean something (oh God)
I want it to all mean something
I want to love my neighbor like I love myself
And I wanna move when my brother cries out for help
Don't wanna be too proud to forgive before the sun goes down
Then this life that I've been living, what would it mean now?
At best it will all mean something
With love it all means something, yeah
I hope it all means something, yeah
With love it will all mean something
Yeah
