D Here
A I am Lord and I'm
F#m drowning in
E your sea
A of
D forgetfulness.
The chains
E of yesterday
F#m surround me.
E I yearn for
A peace
D and rest.
I don't want
E to end up where you
F#m found me.
A And it echoes in my
D mind,
E keeps me
A awake
D tonight.
I
A _ _
D know
E you've cast my sin as
F#m far as the
A east is from
D the west.
And I
A stand before you
F#m now as
A though I've never
D sinned.
But today
E I feel like I'm
F#m just one mistake
C#m away from
D you leaving me
A this way.
D Jesus can you show me just
F#m how far the east is from
A the west.
E _ Cause I
Bm can't bear to see the man I've been
D rising up in me
E again.
F#m In the arms of your mercy
A I find
E rest.
But you know
Bm just how far the east
A is from the
D west.
From one scarred hand to the
F#m other.

Endless

D I'm in.

I know you've washed me
C#m white and turned my darkness into
F#m light.
I need your peace
D to get me through.
Get me through
A this night.
I can't live by what
C#m I feel.
A Without the truth your word
F#m reveals.
I'm not holding on to
D you.
But you're holding on
F#m to me.

F#m Just how
A far the
C#m east is from
F#m the west.
Just
A how far.
E One scarred hand
F#m to the other.
Just how
A far
C#m the east
F#m is _ from
D the west.
One scarred hand to the other.
