First Love

Petra

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.
