First Love
These
are the words of Him who holds the seven stars in His right hand and walks
among the seven golden lamp stands…
I know your deeds. I know your perseverance.
I know that you can’t tolerate sin.
And I know you’ve done these things,
I know you’ve done these things in my name.
I know your works. I know you labor and strain.
I know your words are true, but you’ve lost your first love,
and without it you
labor in vain.
Chorus
Cause
you have lost your first love.
Remember
the height from which you have fallen.
You
have lost your first love,
Go back
and do the things you used to do.
For you
have lost your first love,
Open
your eyes that you might see Him.
You
have lost your first love,
Open your ears that you may hear the words of the Lord.
You were called to
One hope, one love, one faith, one baptism.
One Lord, one God, one King, who is
everything,
so get back to
first and only love.
God knows your deeds. God knows your perseverance.
God knows that you can’t tolerate sin.
And He knows you’ve done these things,
He knows you’ve done these things in His
name.
God knows your works.
God knows you labor and strain.
He knows your words are true,
But you’ve lost your first love,
and without it you
labor in vain.
