Can I Stay Here Forever

A Christian contemporary song by Starfield. The lyrics speak of a longing to remember our first love and what it was like when we first came to Christ. Indeed it was and still is a beautiful experience of God's love, mercy and grace flowing to and through us.

Revelations 2:2-5 speak of Christ's words to the church in Ephesus. They were commended for their hard work, perseverance, and intolerance of wickedness. However, Jesus had one charge against them - that they had forsaken their first love. Such is the importance of the Gospel, for we are reminded of our first love - Jesus Christ, who died in our stead, taking our sins upon Himself, and satisfying God's holy wrath once and for all.

That is why Christians need to hear the Gospel being preached continually. Let us not forsake our first love, but be humbled continually by His great love for us. May our hearts long and hunger for Christ!
