[VERSE 1]
You know our works, You know our ways;
Our patient labor through the days.
False apostles tested, lies exposed;
Nicolaitan deeds we have opposed.
For Your name’s sake we’ve borne the strain,
And not grown weary through the pain.
Yet still our hearts have lost their thirst;
We left the love we had at first.
[CHORUS]
Remember, repent, return to Me;
Remember the love you had at first.
Remember, repent, return to Me;
Come back to the love you had at first.
[VERSE 2]
Remember how your first love burned;
Remember how your whole heart yearned.
How far you’ve fallen, turn and see;
Come back again, come back to Me.
Repent, return, do as before;
Let first love lead your works once more.
Repent and turn before I come;
Or I’ll remove your lampstand from its place.
[CHORUS]
Remember, repent, return to Me;
Remember the love you had at first.
Remember, repent, return to Me;
Come back to the love you had at first.
[BRIDGE]
We turn again, we come to You;
Restore the love we once knew.
Let every work flow from Your flame;
Let all we do exalt Your name.
[FINAL CHORUS]
Remember, repent, return to Me;
Remember the love you had at first.
Remember, repent, return to Me;
Come back to the love you had at first.
[OUTRO]
Hear what the Spirit says,
To all who overcome:
From the tree of life you’ll eat,
From the tree of life you’ll eat,
In the Paradise of God.
