You First Loved Me

The world has taken me from you

Learn me away with the beauty of a dream

But I am standing here now to search no more

Because you first loved me

You showed me love can be patient

And should be given and taken tenderly

How I still long for the arms that held me then

The one who first loved me

I know you stood and watched me walk away

Letting me go , not standing in my way

In the darkness of my deepest heart

I have seen the light you are to me, to me

So I will ask for forgiveness

And try to prove every day that I will be

Willing to give you my life eternally

Because you first loved

Because you first loved me

And I am standing here now to search no more

Because you first loved

Because you first loved me
