Sometimes i feel i'm pulled in so
many wrong directions
sometimes i feel the world
seducing my affections
it's not that i don't know the way
it's just a heart that's prone
to stray
but with my weaknesses admitted
you will keep all that i've committed
so i commit my heart to you
my first love.
First love, first love
my soul longs after you.
first love, my first love
i want my heart to stay so true.
because you first loved me,
jesus, you will always be
you will always be
my first love.
It's taken me some time to try to
comprehend.
a love that doesn't change
a love without an end.
a love that keeps forgiving
a love of sacrifice and giving
i delight myself in you
my first love.
If i ever lack endurance
i remember you assurance
that your only banner over me
is love
if my heart begins to waiver
woo me back, my loving saviour
woo me back till i return to
my first love.
