Rebecca St. James
The Proof of Your Love (Live)
[Verse 1: Rebecca St. James]
If I sing but don't have love
I waste my breath with every song
I bring an empty voice, a hollow noise
And 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

[Chorus: for KING & COUNTRY & Rebecca St. James]
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

[Verse 2: Luke Smallbone]
And 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-e

[Chorus: Joel & Luke Smallbone]
So let my life be the proof
The proof of Your love
Let my love look like You
And what You're made of
And how you lived, how You died
Love is sacrifice
So let my life be the proof
The proof of Your love
[Bridge: for KING & COUNTRY & Rebecca St. James]
Whoa-oa-oa-oa-oa-oa
When it's all said and done
Whoa-oa-oa-oa-oa-oa
When we sing our final song
Only love remains
Only love remai-ains

[Break: Luke Smallbone]
No-o-o ooh oh
No-o-o ooh oh

[Monologue: Joel Smallbone]
And if I speak with human eloquence and angelic ecstasy but don't love, I'm nothing but the creaking of a rusty gate
And 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 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 we say, no matter what we believe, and no matter what we do, we're bankrupt without love
If you believe that tonight, then let me hear you sing this chorus with all of your hearts
Make it your anthem

[Chorus: for KING & COUNTRY, Joel Smallbone]
So let my life be the proof
The proof of Your love (Sing it!)
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
