what if i could move mountains
and gave all i had to the poor?
would it mean a thing?

would it mean a thing if i don't have love?
what if i used all the gifts
and gave my body to the flame?

would it mean a thing?
would it mean a thing if i don't have love?


and when i pass through that veil
i know perfection comes
the chains will come off

the walls will fall down
the scales will drop
and i'll see him face to face


love came to earth so we'd see
a different way to live and grow

self-seeking in nothing
to show us what it means to walk in love
to show us how to always trust

to persevere and always hope
give thanks in everything
to show us what it means to walk in love


and when i pass through that veil
i know perfection comes

the chains will come off
the walls will fall down
the scales will drop

and i'll see him face to face

love is patient, love is kind

it doesn't envy, doesn't bind
it means everything
it means everything when you have love
