Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
It's taken me sometime
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
[Chorus]
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
[Bridge]
If I ever lack endurance
I remember your assurance
That Your only banner
Over me is love
If my heart begins to waiver
Woo me back, my loving Savior
Woo me back till I return
To my first love
[Chorus]
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
[Outro]
You will always be
My first love
