Intro: Dm Am C F x2

Verse:
     Dm       Am
If I sing but donʼt have love
  C                    F
I waste my breath with every song
  Dm       Am             C           F
I bring an empty voice, a hollow noise.
      Dm           Am
If I speak with a silver tongue
   C                 F
Convince a crowd but donʼt have love
  Dm      Am                C            F
I leave a bitter taste with every word I say

Chorus:
   Dm     Am          C                   G
So let my life be the proof, The proof of Your love
Dm     Am             C                   G
Let my love look like You and what Youʼre made of
Dm             Am            C            G
How You lived, how You died, Love is sacrifice
   Dm     Am          C                   G
So let my life be the proof, The proof of Your love

Dm Am C F x2

Verse:
     Dm        Am
If I give to a needy soul
    C                    F
But donʼt have love then who is poor?
   Dm            Am         C          F
It seems all the poverty is found in me

Chorus:
   Dm     Am          C                   G
So let my life be the proof, The proof of Your love
Dm     Am             C                   G
Let my love look like You and what Youʼre made of
Dm             Am           C            G
How You lived, how You died, Love is sacrifice
   Dm     Am          C                   G
So let my life be the proof, The proof of Your love

Bridge:
F              C      Am            G
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh; When itʼs all said and done
F              C      Am              G
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh; When we sing our final song
F                  G
Only love remains. Only love remains

Dm Am C G x2

Monologue:
If 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 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’m nothing.
If I give all I earn 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.

Chorus:
   Dm     Am          C                   G
So let my life be the proof, The proof of Your love
Dm     Am             C                   G
Let my love look like You and what Youʼre made of
Dm             Am           C            G
How You lived, how You died, Love is sacrifice
   Dm     Am          C                   G
So let my life be the proof, The proof of Your love

Dm Am C F x2
