First Loved Me

First Loved Me

I can’t forget, I still remember
The place You found me and I surrendered
When Your grace covered my shame and saw my need





You gave me hope, hope and a future
My heart is Yours now and forever
I am loved only because You first loved me





And I love You
Jesus I love You
Yes I love You
Because You first loved me





Your sacrifice is overwhelming
Suffered and died because You loved me
Now I’m alive only through Christ who first loved me





Nothing can tear me away from Your love Lord
Nothing can separate Your heart from mine
Nothing can tear me away from Your love Lord
I am Yours, I am Yours
