Thorns

There was a time when I knew Your voice
It was as real as a dollar bill
There was a time when I know Your way; it was something I could just feel
There was a time when I knew Your word, and it was always on my lips
There was a time when I knew Your will, how could I ever forget
But I fell among thorns I got caught in the weeds
I fell among thorns, now the world is choking me

There was a time when I showed your love, I would even go out of my way
There was a time when I loved my neighbor in a Samaritan kind of way
There was a time when I wanted to give with never a thought to take
There was a time when learning to live meant dying to my selfish ways
But I fell among thorns I got caught in the weeds
I fell among thorns, now the world is choking me

Where did my first love go? Show me the path of return
The things that I used to know I find that I need to re-learn

There was a time when seeking Your face was something I wanted to do
And there was time when all of my time was spent getting closer to You
But I fell among thorns I got caught in the weeds
I fell among thorns, now the world is choking me
