Verse 1

You breathed love, and the world began

You formed our hearts in the palm of your hand

When we were crushed by sin and shame

You sent Your Son to save

Chorus

We love, we love, we love

Because You first loved us

We love, we love, we love

Because You first loved us

You laid down heav'n above to lift us up

We love, we love, we love

Because You first loved us

Verse 2

To all in need, to all who thirst

We'll spread Your love over all the earth

Feed the hungry, embrace the weak

Set the captives free

Bridge

(We love) Because You first loved

(We love) Because You first loved

(We love) Because You first loved us
