Verse 1
When my heart runs ahead of my peace,
When my thoughts start countin’ what I can’t see,
When tomorrow feels louder than grace,
And worry is shouting in Your place —
Call me back to the simple truth,
All I need is found in You.
Not in striving, not in plans,
But resting in Your faithful hands.
Pre-Chorus
Before I chase the answer,
Before I try to control —
I will bring You my first thought,
Lay it down at Your throne.
Chorus
I will seek You first, Lord — first above all,
Before every fear, before every call.
You are my source, my daily bread,
You know every need ahead.
When I put You first, I stand in rest,
You take care of all the rest.
My heart, my hope, my future path —
All secure in what You have.
Verse 2
When the numbers rise and peace falls low,
When the job feels unsure and the way’s unknown,
When the future writes questions in my mind,
Teach my soul where hope to find.
Not in faster, not in more,
But at Your feet — my steady shore.
You’ve never failed, You won’t start now,
Every promise still stands somehow.
Pre-Chorus
So I will stop and remember,
Who holds what comes next —
Not my effort, not my strength,
But Your faithfulness.
Chorus
I will seek You first, Lord — first above all,
Before every fear, before every call.
You are my source, my daily bread,
You know every need ahead.
When I put You first, I stand in rest,
You take care of all the rest.
My heart, my hope, my future path —
All secure in what You have.
Bridge (soft → lift)
I don’t have to chase the outcome,
I don’t have to force the door.
Where You lead is always enough,
Always more.
You are priority, You are peace,
When I seek You — striving ceases.
Final Chorus (Lift)
I will seek You first, Lord — first every day,
First in my steps, first in my way.
You are my source, my covering,
My Provider and my King.
When I put You first, my soul can rest,
You are working out the rest.
I choose Your presence over plans —
My whole life in Your hands.
Outro (repeatable tag)
First in my heart, first in my eyes,
First in my life — You provide.
