Return to Your First Love

Lyrics

You say it's different now, then how it was before You do your best, but you don't feel it anymore What happened to the days when your life just seemed to flow Miracles were happening wherever you would go You tried so hard, it seems, to do the righteous thing But oh, the trials that came and the shadows it would bring You went to meetings, and you'd be the first to pray You even spoke a prophecy, was only yesterday But something's wrong Something's wrong with you Though you tried your best The Lord just didn't bless You're wonderin' what to do Return to your first love Put Jesus first again The love in your heart You had when you first started Could be there again Return to your first love You say you told your friends the things they're doin' wrong You had a leading, yes, you felt it oh-so strong They looked so hurt, I guess they didn't understand Since then your counseling has not been in demand You tried to give advice but found you were ignored But even though they scoffed, you still said, "Praise the Lord anyway" And you thought Christians were to be of one accord Is there a dull edge on that double-edged sword? No, no, something's wrong Something's wrong with you Though you tried your best The Lord just didn't bless You're wonderin' what to do Return to your first love Put Jesus first again The love in your heart You had when you first started Could be there again Return to your first love Return to your first love
