The Proof of Your Love
by For King & Country

Album: Crave

If I sing but don't have love
I waste my breath with every song
I bring an empty voice, a hollow noise
If I speak with a silver tongue
Convince a crowd but don't have love
I leave a bitter taste with every word I say

So let my life be the proof,
The proof of Your love
Let my love look like You and what You're made of
How You lived, how You died
Love is sacrifice
So let my life be the proof,
The proof of Your love

If I give
To a needy soul but don't have love then who is poor?
It seems all the poverty is found in me

So let my life be the proof,
The proof of Your love
Let my love look like You and what You're made of
How You lived, how You died
Love is sacrifice
Oh, let my life be the proof,
The proof of Your love

When it's all said and done
When we sing our final song
Only love remains
Only love remains

Spoken:
If I speak with human eloquence and angelic ecstacy
But don't love
I am nothing but the creaking of a rusty gate
If I speak God's word with power
Revealing all of His mysteries and making everything as plain as day
And if I have faith to say to a mountain "Jump"
And it jumps
But I don't love
I am nothing
If I give all I own to the poor
Or 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
No matter what I believe
No matter what I do
I'm bankrupt without love

Let my life be the proof,
The proof of Your love
Let my love look like You and what You're made of
How You lived, how You died
Love is sacrifice
So let my life be the proof,
The proof of Your love
