In the sweet morning sunshine
I can feel You all around
And Your majesty and humanity
Take me where Your grace was found
The life I had was bigger
Than I ever first realized
Jesus Christ was the victor
And my sins He crucified
Take me back to my first love
My savior saved me as He died and rose again
Sin was slain when they shed His blood
Take me back to when I first loved
Oh, Take me back to my first love
That Good Friday felt so happy
A sad day, not sad then
Jesus Christ became my anchor
And my soul was born again
I remember that Easter morning
When my flesh had collapsed
And Your Spirit was moving through me
I couldn't help, but smile and laugh
Cause Your joy came down from heaven
To touch my blinded heart
And in that very moment, my eyes were opened
I could almost hear the sound of trumpets
Bursting from the church triumphant
Take me back to my first love
My savior saved me as He died and rose again
Sin was slain when they shed His blood
Take me back to when I first loved
Oh, Take me back to my first love
Why was I blind to the fullness of the calling of my walk
Now I know that I will always walk in love
How could I have been so dead when Christ has brought me life
I won't ever go back to that dimmed light
Take me back to my first love
My savior saved me as He died and rose again
Sin was slain when they shed His blood
Take me back to when I first loved
Oh, Take me back to my first love
