I could chase after greatness First to fall on my knees Lose myself to be found Where You want me I could do all the right things Sing the words till they bleed But I know it's just noise If I don't have love So I won't waste my breath If it's not for love I don't have the heart If it's not for love Don't let me say it's faith If it counts no cost 'Cause there's no fear in love But there is a cross I could speak like the angels Prophesy knowing all I could live with the faith To move mountains And should I die like a martyr Give my wealth to the poor It would all scream loud-nothing If I don't have love So I won't waste my breath
If it's not for love I don't have the heart If it's not for love Don't let me say it's faith If it counts no cost 'Cause there's no fear in love But there is a cross Be patient, be kind Hold no envy or pride Be the first to come last For another Never forced, slow to anger Trust without keeping score Long to suffer with truth Love will never die Oh I won't waste my breath If it's not for love I don't have the heart If it's not for love, no Don't let me say it's faith If it counts no cost 'Cause there's no fear in love But there is a cross Love will never die But there is a cross
