[Verse 1]
C          Em           G                 Em              C
 Here I am Lord and I'm drowning in your sea of forgetfulness.
C            Em        G             Em                C
My chains of yesterday surround. I yearn for peace and rest.
C               Em               G          Em                 Am
I don't want to end up where you found me and it echos in my mind.
   Em             C
It keeps me awake tonight.
C             Em              G           Em               C
I know you've cast my sins as far as the East is from the west
C      Em              G       Em                C
And I stand before you now as though I've never sinned
 
[Pre-chorus]
C       Em            G                Em    C                        Em
Today I feel like I'm just one mistake away, from you leaving me this way.
G
Jesus, can you show me just how
 
[Chorus]
C       Em               G
Far the East is from the West.
              C               G                  Em           G
Cause I can't bear to see the man I've been from rising up in me again.
           C            Em           G
And in the arms of your mercy I find rest.
               C                Em            G
Cause you know just how far the East from the West
 
From one scarred hand to the other.
 
C  Em  G  Em  C
 
[Verse 2]
            Em          G               Em              C
I start the day the war begans and less reminding of my sins 
              Em              G                    Em                C
when time and time again your truth is drowned out by this storm I'm in
 
(Pre-chorus)
 
(Chorus)
 
[Bridge]
Em                      C                G             Em
I know you've washed me white, turned my darkness into light
  G                  C                  Em                  G
I need your peace to get me through, to get me through this night
        G               Em            C              Em
I can't live by what it feel. By your truth you word reveals
        G             Em              C             G Em
I'm not holding on to you, but you're holding on to me......
                     G
You're holding on to me
 
Jesus you know just how
 
[Chorus] (x2)
         C       Em               G              C
Just how far the East is from the West, just how far.
                        G
One scarred hand to the other.
