Im going back to my first love, Im going back to my first joy
Im going back where I first believed, going back to my priority
Cause I strayed away many a day, said that I would not
Done the things that I should not have done,
Ive done wrong, but now I wanna come home
Im so sorry, forgive me Lord, I know where I belong
Crying, Oh Lord, wont you restore all of my joy
Cause I just wanna love you more
And each day I pray that you would lead my way
Grant me your mercy and grace, falling on my knees today
I just wanna find my way back to you
Im going back, wanna go back to my first love
Back to my first love
Dont kill the fatted calf; you aint got to roast no lamb
Dont need a fancy ring or material things,
You can bar-b-que wings in the backyard, its alright with me
It really doesnt matter Lord, just as long as Im right where you are
Ive been gone a little to long, now I wanna come home
Oh, what a lesson Ive learned
It was I who walked away; Father I sho regret that day
Its time for me to return
Ive had many dreams about the day when Id be comin home
Just wanna see your face; what a restoration
Dont need no group party just to help me get my praise on
Appreciate the celebration
