Intro:
[E minor 7Em7 (D5D5)  D MajorD] x2

C majorC     D MajorD        E minorEm       G+G        C majorC
 Here I am, Lord, and I'm drowning in Your sea of forgetfulness
(C majorC)       D MajorD      E minorEm      G+G          C majorC
 The chains of yesterday surround me, I yearn for peace and rest
(C majorC)       D MajorD        E minorEm       G+G       C majorC
I don't want to end up where You found me, and it echoes in my mind,
         D MajorD
Keeps me awake tonight

C majorC        D MajorD       E minorEm     G+G        C majorC
 I know You've cast my sin as far as the east is from the west
(C majorC)   D MajorD         E minorEm  G+G        C majorC
And I stand before You now as though I've never sinned
(C majorC)     D MajorD         E minorEm      G+G       C majorC
But today I feel like I'm just one mistake away from You leaving me this way

[Chorus 1]:
(C majorC)      (D MajorD)       E minor 7Em7           Asus4Asus4
Jesus can You show me just how far the east is from the west?
        A minorAm
'Cause I can't bear to see the man I've been
   C majorC      D MajorD
Come rising up in me again
    E minor 7Em7            Asus4Asus4
In the arms of Your mercy I find rest
         A minorAm              C majorC
'Cause You know just how far the east is from the west
         D MajorD
From one scarred hand to the other


[E minor 7Em7  D MajorD] x2
C majorC       D MajorD       E minorEm        G+G       C majorC
 I start the day, the war begins, endless reminding of my sin
(C majorC)    D MajorD        E minorEm         G+G      C majorC
 Time and time again Your truth is drowned out by the storm I'm in
(C majorC)     D MajorD         E minorEm      G+G       C majorC
But today I feel like I'm just one mistake away from You leaving me this way

(C majorC)      (D MajorD)       E minor 7Em7           Asus4Asus4
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
   C majorC      D MajorD
Come rising up in me again
    E minor 7Em7            Asus4Asus4
In the arms of Your mercy I find rest
         A minorAm              C majorC
'Cause You know just how far the east is from the west
         D MajorD
From one scarred hand to the other


G+G            D MajorD                E minor 7Em7
 I know You've washed me white, turned my darkness into light
            C majorC                   G+G
 I need Your peace to get me through, to get me through this night
(G+G)           D MajorD                E minor 7Em7
 I can't live by what I feel, but by the truth Your word reveals
              C majorC               E minorEm   Asus4Asus4
 and I'm not holding on to You, but You're holding on to me
           E minor 7Em7  D MajorD
 You're holding on to me

[Chorus 2]:
             G+G             D MajorD

I don't have to see the man I've been

Come rising up in me again
    G+G             D MajorD
In the arms of Your mercy I find rest (in Your mercy I find rest)
         A minorAm              C majorC
'Cause You know just how far the east is from the west
         (D MajorD)
From one scarred hand to the other


E minor 7Em7      G+G
  Just how far, the east is from the west?
E minor 7Em7      G+G
  Just how far...?
    D MajorD           E minor 7Em7
(From one scarred hand to the other)

E minor 7Em7      G+G
  Just how far, the east is from the west?
E minor 7Em7      C majorC
  Just how far...? (From one scarred hand to the other)
