Have you ever heard a song so powerful that it bring you to tears. It remind you of your own life and some one, some how put your life into their words. Below is a song from one of my favorite Christian band, Casting Crowns. I've been playing this song over and over just to help me get throught the day. I've been fight depression for the past few months, I love the line that says, I start the day and the war begins. Thats how I feel....
Please read the lyrics and let me know what you think!!
Here I am Lord, And I'm drowningIn your sea of forgetfulnessThe 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 cast my sin as far as the east is from the westAnd I stand before you now as,As though I've never sinnedBut today I feel like I'm just one mistake awayFrom you leaving me this wayJesus can you show meJust how far the east is from the westCause I can't bear to see the man I've been 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 beginsEndless reminding of my sinAnd time 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 wayJesus can you show me,Just how far the East is from the WestCause 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 form the WestFrom one scarred hand to the other.I know you've washed me white,Turned my darkness into lightI need your peace to get me through,To get me through this nightCan’t live by what I feelBut by the Truth your work reveals,I'm not holding on to youBut you're holding on to me,You’re holding on to meJesus you knowJust 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 form the West,From one scarred hand to the other.Just how far The east is from the west From one scarred hand to the other
