Verso 1

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

Verso 2

I know You've cast my sin as far
As the east is from the west
And I stand before You now as
As though I've never sinned
Today I feel like
I'm just one mistake away
From You leavin' me this way
Jesus can You show me just how

Coro 1

Far the east is from the west
'Cause I can't bear
To see the man I've been
Come risin' 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

Verso 3

I start the day the war begins
Endless reminding of my sin
And 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 leavin' me this way
Jesus can You show me just how

Coro 1

Far the east is from the west
'Cause I can't bear
To see the man I've been
Come risin' 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

Puente 1

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

Puente 2

I can't live by what I feel
But by the truth Your word reveals
I'm not holdin' on to You
But You're holdin' on to me

Refrain

But You're holdin' on to me
Jesus You know just how

Coro 2

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
You know just how far
The east is from the west
From one scarred hand to the other

Repetir

One scarred hand to the other

Repetir

From one scarred hand to the other
