This is a very pretty song with a good message.
The chords do not match the CD, but they sound good by themselves.
Bb F Bb F
I used to be the one who would long to hear Your voice
Bb Am Gm
A child who sought to win his Father's heart
Bb F Bb F
But as I carried on life got a hold on me
D Bb Gm
Now here I am a son so far from home
Chorus:
Am Bb F
Tell me when did I lose my first love?
Am Bb F
Where did the fire and passion go?
C D C F
Burn in me Your holy fire, give me back my lost desire
Bb F Gm
And restore in me the love I felt for You
Bb F
Can I remember how it felt
Bb F Bb Am Gm
When they looked into my face and saw the love of Jesus in my eyes
Bb F Bb F
When I look back on my life and question where I've been
D Bb Gm
Can I really say I've done my best for You?
Repeat Chorus
C F
Oh where did I go? (I've lost my way, I've lost my love, I'm all alone)
Gm Bb
Oh, I'm lost and I'm alone
F Gm
Oh, help me please, Lord lead me home
Bb F Bb F
Father take me back let me start again
Bb Am Gm
Lord, I've failed and I've fallen in my pride
Bb F Bb F
But lead me back to You, where my life began
D Bb Gm
Revive in me the longing that has died
