   Here I am Lord and I'm drowning, in Your sea of forgetfulness
              E            F#m      F#m7/A      A/C#        D
The chains of yesterday surround me, I yearn for peace and rest

I know You've cast my sin as far as the east is from the west 
      E               F#m         A                 D
And I stand before You now as… as though I've never sinned
             E                F#m          C#m            D               E E
But today I feel like I'm just one mistake away from You leaving me this way

In the arms of Your mercy I find rest
                Bm                      A/C#       D
'Cause You know just how far the east is from the west

  I start the day the war begins endless reminding of my sin
          E             F#m                 F#m7/A             D
Time and time again Your Truth is drowned out by the storm I'm in

                       C#m                                F#m
I can't live by what I feel, but by the truth Your Word reveals
                      D                            F#m   E
