How is it that the Lord always knows what song I need to hear exactly when I need it? In a lot of ways, I think that's one of the ways He speaks to me, especially when it's so hard to hear Him with all of the noise... I know it's so cliche, but love the words to this song, and they remind me that though others may not forgive or forget the stupid things I do daily, He does. How reassuring!!
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
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
Turned 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
But by 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
