East to West by Casting Crowns

Here I am, Lord, and I’m drowning

In your sea of forgetfulness

The chains of yesterday surround me
I yearn for peace and rest

I don’t want to end up where You found me

And it echoes in my mind,

Keeps me awake tonight

I know You’ve cast my sin as far as,
as the east is from the west

And I stand before You now as,

As though I’ve never sinned

But today I feel like I’m just one mistake away

from You leaving me this way

Jesus, can You show me just how

Far the east is from the west

‘Cause I can’t bear to see the man I’ve been

Come rising up in me again

In the arms of Your mercy I find rest

You know just how far the east is from the west

From one scarred hand to the other

I start the day, the war begins

Endless reminding of my sin

Time and time again Your truth is drowned out

By the storm I’m in

Today I feel like I’m just one mistake away

From You leaving me this way

I know You’ve washed me white,

Turned my darkness into light

I need Your peace to get me through,

To get me through this night

I can’t live by what I feel,

But by the truth Your word reveals

I’m not holding on to You,

But You’re holding on to me
You’re holding on to me

Jesus, You know just how far

The east is from the west

I don’t have to see the man I’ve been

Come rising up in me again

In the arms of Your mercy I find rest

‘Cause You know just how far the east is from the west

From one scarred hand to the other
One scarred hand to the other

From one scarred hand to the other
