If we only have love
Then tomorrow will dawn
And the days of our years
Will rise on that morn.

If Only We Have Love (1957)

If we only have love
We can reach those in pain
We can heal all our wounds
We can use our own names.

If Only We Have Love (1957)

If we only have love
We will never bow down
We'll be tall as the pines
Neither heroes nor clowns.
If we only have love
Then we'll only be men
And we'll drink from the Grail
To be born once again;
Then with nothing at all
But the little we are
We'll have conquered all time
All space, the sun, and the stars!

If Only We Have Love (1957)

If we only have love
We can melt all the guns
And then give the new world
To our daughters and sons.If we only have love
Then Jerusalem stands
And then death has no shadow
There are no foreign lands.
