Capo 2 

Intro: 
( E5        G5  D5 ) x2 


Verse 1: 
C5    D5                   E5 
Here I am , Lord and I'm drowning   
            G5                     C5 
In Your sea of forgetfulness 
                      D5            E5 
The chains of yesterday surround me 
  G5                             C5 
I yearn for peace and rest 
                       D5                          E5 
I don't want to end up where You found me 
          G5               C5                  D5            C5 
And it echoes in my mind, keeps me awake tonight 

Verse 2: 
C5                D5               E5 
I know You've cast my sin as far as 
          G5                       C5 
As the east is from the west 
        D5                    E5 
And I stand before You now as 
     G5                         C5 
As though I've never sinned 
                 D5                       E5               G5 
But today I feel like I'm just one mistake away 
               C5                       D5 
From You leaving me this way 
C5 
Jesus can You show me just how 

Refr?o -------------
 E5                  G5           D5 
Far the east is from the west 
                     A5 
'Cause I can't bear to see the man I've been 
C5 
Rising up in me again 
         E5                          G5       D5 
In the arms of Your mercy I find rest 
               A5                               G5         C5 
You know just how far the east is from the west 
                            ( D5 ) 
on Chorus repeat 

From one scarred hand to the other 

Instrumental: 
E5      D5       E5        D5 


Verse 3: 
C5          D5                E5 
I start the day, the war begins 
               G5                     C5 
Endless reminding of my sin 
               D5                 E5 
Time and time again Your truth is drowned out 
G5                       C5 
By the storm I'm in 
            D5                       E5               G5 
Today I feel like I'm just one mistake away 
               C5                      D5 
From You leaving me this way 
C5 
Jesus can You show me just how 

Repeat Chorus 

Bridge: 
G5                                     D5 
I know You've washed me white 
                                   E5 
Turn my darkness into light 
                                G5 
I need Your peace to get me through 
     C5                             G5 
To get me through this night 
                               B5 
I can't live by what I feel 
                                            E5 
About the truth Your work reveals 
                                        C5 
And I'm not holding on to You 
                                      E5      D5 
But You're holding on to me 
                                 E5          D5 
You're holding on to me 

Chorus (watch out, chords are different!) 
                                        G5                                 D5 
Jesus, You know just how far the east is from the west 
          E5 
I don't have to see the man I've been 
         G5                    C5 
Come rising up in me again 
         G5                                      D5 
In the arms of Your mercy I find rest (mercy I find rest) 
               A5                               G5         C5 
You know just how far the east is from the west

(Just how far, the east is from the west, just how far) 
                                              E5 
From one scarred hand to the other
