This is an AMAZING song!!!!!!! Hopefully, by posting this song on the worldwide web, people will start to turn their lives toward the only one that knows how far the east is from the west! This video took me the longest amount of time of any of my previous videos but I like how it turned out! I hope you guys enjoy it! I would like to dedicate this video to my girlfriend, whom I love very much! She is beautiful inside and out and this song always reminds me of her. Thanks for watching and God Bless!

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
the East is from the West
And I stand before You now as though I've never sinned
But today I feel like I'm just one mistake away
From You leaving me this way

Chorus:
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
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

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 leaving me this way

I know You've washed me white
Turn my darkness into life
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 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
rising up in me again
In the arms of Your mercy I find rest
cause You know how far the east is from the west
from one scarred hand to the other
