The Story Behind the Song

Sometimes the simplest truths are the hardest to live. Love First came from that observation, noticing how often we react, analyze, or protect ourselves before we act with love. What if we flipped it? What if love always moved first?

The song was inspired by real-life moments: a stranger’s kindness that shows up unexpectedly, a friend reaching out before you ask, or a quiet moment when Jesus steps in before fear or doubt even arrives. Those sparks of first-move love are powerful, and I wanted to capture that energy in music.

The groove, the claps, the crowd-shout samples, all of it mirrors that contagious, uplifting feeling when love leads the way. It’s playful, communal, and impossible to stay still to, because love itself moves, spreads, and inspires movement in everyone around it.

Love First isn’t just a statement; it’s an invitation. It reminds listeners that the first step doesn’t have to be big or perfect, it just has to come from love. When Jesus loved first, everything else followed. When we follow that example, even in small ways, the world shifts.

This song celebrates that truth: love doesn’t wait. Love initiates. Love transforms. And if we start there, every moment can carry grace, joy, and connection.

Lyrics

Sun on my skin
New day begins
Jesus reminds
Love leads the lines

Feet on the floor
Light at the door
He showed the way
Start love today

One spark in the air
Jesus is already there

Love moves first
Jesus loved us first
Love moves first
Jesus loved us first

LOVE FIRST!
mmm-hmm
LOVE FIRST!
mmm-hmm

Smile in the breeze
Heart feels at ease
Jesus within
Lifting again

Grace in the beat
Light in our feet
He takes our hand
Helps us to stand

One spark in the air
Jesus is already there

Love moves first
Jesus loved us first
Love moves first
Jesus loved us first

LOVE FIRST!
mmm-hmm
LOVE FIRST!
mmm-hmm
LOVE FIRST!
mmm-hmm

Love moves first
Jesus loved us first
Love moves first
Jesus loved us first
