East To West - Casting Crowns

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

From where I'm standing Lord, it's so hard for me to see Where this is going And where You're leading me I wish I knew how All my fears and all my questions Are gonna play out In a world I can't control Whoa, whoa When I'm lost in the mystery To You, my future is a memory 'Cause You're already there You're already there Standing at the end of my life Waiting on the other side And You're already there You're already there Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa From where You're standing Lord, You see a grand design That You imagined When You breathed me into life And all the chaos Comes together in Your hands Like a masterpiece, hey Of Your picture-perfect plan When I'm lost in the mystery To You my future is a memory 'Cause You're already there You're already there Standing at the end of my life Waiting on the other side And You're already there You're already there One day I'll stand before You And look back on the life I've lived I can't wait to enjoy the view And see how all the pieces fit One day I'll stand before You And look back on the life I've lived I can't wait to enjoy the view And see how all the pieces fit One day I'll stand before you And look back on the life I've lived 'Cause You're already there You're already there When I'm lost in the mystery To You, my future is a memory 'Cause You're already there You're already there Standing at the end of my life Waiting on the other side And You're already there You're already there You're already there
