Loved Me First

By Philippa Hanna

Lyrics

My pockets were empty I had nothing to give 

I was your enemy you called me your friend  

Why do I find myself trying to earn it 

You gave it all when I didn’t deserve it  

 

Who am I to question why 

You said it was worth it 


I found life when You laid yours down  

Some kind of hope when I opened my hands 

Love unending when I was empty 

You healed my hurt  

You saw beauty when you saw these scars 

Some kind of treasure buried in this heart 

Why should I ever  

Why should ever doubt my worth  

I’ll remember that you loved me first 

 

So hidden in shame I thought nobody could find me 

But nothing could stop you from chasing behind me 

Why do I find myself trying to earn this 

You gave it all when I didn’t deserve it 


I found life when You laid yours down  

I some kind of hope when I opened my hands 

Love unending, when I was empty 

You healed my hurt  

You saw beauty when you saw these scars 

Some kind of treasure buried in this heart 

Why should I ever  

Why should ever doubt my worth  

I’ll Remember that you loved me first 

Remember that you loved me first 


I love you cos you first loved me first 

I’m learning how to let you hold me 

I love you cos you first loved me first 

I’m learning, I’m learning 

I love you cos you first loved me first 

I’m learning how to let you hold me 

I love you cos you first loved me first 

I’m learning, I’m learning 


That I find life when I lay it down  

Some kind of healing when I open my hands  

And love unending when I was empty 

You healed my hurt  

I found life when I lay it down 

Some kind of hope when I opened my hands 

Love unending when I was empty 

You healed my hurt  


You saw beauty when you saw these scars 

Some kind of treasure buried in this heart 

Why should I ever  

Why should ever doubt my worth  

I’ll remember that you loved me first 

Remember that you loved me first 

Remember that you loved me first 

Remember that you loved me
