[Verse 1]
I remember the heights, from which I have fallen
I remember my tears, all the hunger and longing
I remember the fire, of Your Spirit upon me
And how I moved with Your heart, oh, come now restore me

[Chorus]
I'm in earnest and I'll repent
I'll remember and return, do the things I did at first
I'll be zealous and I'll repent
I'll remember and return, do the things I did at—
First, first, first, I'm returning to my first love

[Verse 2]
So here is my heart, come and wound me with longing
Let Your refiner's fire, come and have it's way fully
'Til righteousness flows, like a flood from within me
'Til the zeal of the Lord, completely consumes me

[Chorus]
I'm in earnest and I'll repent
I'll remember and return, do the things I did at first
I'll be zealous and I'll repent
I'll remember and return, do the things I did at—
First, first, first, first love
You're my first, first, first, I'm returning to my first love, Lord
[Bridge]
My love
You're the one thing I desire
You're the one thing I desire
You're the one thing I desire
God, it's You and You alone
Lord, it's You and You alone
I will have no other, there will be no other

[Chorus]
I'm in earnest, I'll repent
I'll remember and return, do the things I did at first
I'll be zealous, Lord, I'll repent
Lord, I'll remember and return, do the things I did at first
