Love Is Surrender Ralph Carmichael, The Carpenters

Talk about love how it makes life complete
You can talk all you want, make it sound good and sweet
But the words have an empty ring and they don't really mean a thing,
Without Him love is not to be found, not to be found.
 
    For Love is surrender, love is surrender to His will
    Love is surrender to His will
 
Sing about love and the strength it can give
You can sing now you're ready to face life and live
But you know as the days go by,
That no matter how hard you try
Without Him love is not to be found, not to be found 
    Chorus
 
Shout about love and that wars will all end
You can shout we're all brothers and even pretend
But you can't cover up the past,
Just pretendin' will never last
Without Him love is not to be found, not to be found.
   Chorus
