God speaking through music

I'd barely pressed "publish" on my previous post when I heard in my mind the voice of Jayne Farrell (of 80s Christian duo Farrell & Farrell) singing "Come Back, My First Love" - a cry to God to rekindle the spark that was planted when she first encountered Christ.

Here are the lyrics - a "first step" for me in my healing process.

Don't know exactly how it came to this, or when this change came over me,
Stepping, little by little, 'til I straddled the middle of the line,
So much compromise; standing on neither side,
A far cry from the way it began when I first took hold of Your hand.

Come back, my first love - my Saviour and love,
How far have I fallen? How languished my soul?
Come back, my first love - I need You, my love,
Bring back all those feelings that only You can bring.

My life was different when I first believed, Your joy was ever in my heart,
And the voice of Your Spirit was so clear I could hear it calling me to walk in Your light,
Try to do what was right ... but lately I've been falling away,
An abandoned ship that's drifted astray.

Come back, my first love - my Saviour and love,
How far have I fallen? How languished my soul?
Come back, my first love - I need You, my love,
Bring back all those feelings.

(Come back)

Come back, my first love - I need You, my love,
Bring back all those feelings, only You can bring,
Bring back all those feelings that only You can bring.
