East To West Lyrics and Chords by Casting Crowns

Song title: East To West Lyrics
By Mark Hall of Casting Crowns

Intro:

Verse 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

Verse 2:

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


Chorus:

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


Verse 3:

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
Jesus can You show me just how

Repeat Chorus

Bridge:

I know You've washed me white
Turn 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
About the truth Your work reveals
And I'm not holding on to You
But You're holding on to me
You're holding on to me


Chorus 
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 (mercy I find rest)
You know just how far the east is from the west
From one scarred hand to the other


Ending:
(Just how far, the east is from the west, just how far)
From one scarred hand to the other
(You know just how far, the east is from the west, just how far)
From one scarred hand to the other
