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
