Verse 1

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

Chorus 1

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

Verse 2

I can dine with kings and queens
My name go down in history
But if I don't have love
It means nothing
Take the old and make me new
Show me how to love like You
'Cause if I don’t have love
It means nothing

Chorus 1

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

Tag

At best it all means nothing
Without love
It all means nothing

Bridge

I don't want to sound
Like a crashing cymbal
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

Bridge

I don't want to sound
Like a crashing cymbal
I don't want to be
Some empty noise
I’m down on my knees
Lord I surrender
Help me to love
With a love like Yours

Refrain

And then it’ll all
Mean something
I want it to all
Mean something

Chorus 2

I want to love my neighbor
Like I love myself
I want to move when my brother
Cries out for help
Don’t want to 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
I hope it all means something
With love it will all
Mean something
