[Verse 1]
Em
I remember the heights,
     Esus4
From which I have fallen,
   Em
I remember my tears,
Em                 Em6
All the hunger and longing,
    Em               Esus4
I remember the fire,
        D
Of Your Spirit upon me,
          Am
And how I moved with Your Heart,
   C
Oh come now restore me.

[Chorus 1]
       Em              D
I’m in earnest and I repent,
    C
I remember and return,
       Am
Do the things I did at first,
        Em                 D
I’ll be zealous and I’ll repent,
        C
I’ll remember and return,
       Am
Do the things I did at first,
Em  D  N.C. C  N.C.
First, first, I’m returning,
   Am
My first love.

   Em
So here is my heart,
         D
Come and wound me with longing,
         C
Let your refiner’s fire,
         Am
Come and have its way fully,
     Em
Till righteousness flows,
       D
Like a flood from within me,
         C
Till the zeal of the Lord,
    Am
Completely consumes me.

I’ll be zealous and I’ll repent,
        C
I’ll remember and return,
       Am
Do the things I did at first,
Em   D      C       Am
First, first, first love,
               Em     D      C
You’re my first, first, first,
                    Am
I’m returning to my first love,
Em
Lord.
