Here is another one of my FAV songs, that totally uplift me! East to West by Casting Crowns. The words are so powerful, and deals with what we ALL go through from time to time! Many times I feel like God should just give up on me, yet I know he never will. Which is why it is so important to give our lives to him everyday! I wrote out the lyrics and also included a video so that you could HEAR it! Sooo beautiful!


East To West

Here I am, Lord, and I'm drowning in your sea of forgetfulness The chains of yesterday surround meI yearn for peace and restI don't want to end up where You found meAnd it echoes in my mind, keeps me awake tonightI know You've cast my sin as far as the east is from the westAnd I stand before You now as though I've never sinnedBut today I feel like I'm just one mistake away from You leaving me this wayJesus, 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 come rising up in me againIn the arms of Your mercy I find rest'cause You know just how far the east is from the westFrom one scarred hand to the other

I start the day, the war begins, endless reminding of my sinTime and time again Your truth is drowned out by the storm I'm inToday I feel like I'm just one mistake away from You leaving me this wayI know You've washed me white, turned my darkness into lightI need Your peace to get me through, to get me through this nightI can't live by what I feel, but by the truth Your word revealsI'm not holding on to You, but You're holding on to meYou're holding on to meJesus,

You know just how far the east is from the westI don't have to see the man I've been come rising up in me againIn the arms of Your mercy I find rest'cause You know just how far the east is from the westFrom one scarred hand to the otherOne scarred hand to the other From one scarred hand to the other
