As Far as the East Is from the West Lyrics

I tried to be all you hoped for
I gave my life, I gave my soul
This old heart is full of good intentions
But sometimes it makes the wrong decision

I have been all you've died for
I've prayed for my way only to miss the goal
Even though I've walked in the wrong direction
You were there forgiving me

As far as the East is from the West
You've taken my sins and laid them to rest
As far as the East is from the West
I will never know them again

I stand here with one conclusion
You're grace has replace all that I deserve
As a child can know his father's compassion
Here I am reaching for you

As far as the East is from the West
You've taken my sins and laid them to rest
As far as the East is from the West
I will never know them again

As far as the East is from the West
As far as the East is from the West

As far as the East is from the West
You've taken my sins and laid them to rest
As far as the East is from the West
I will never know them again
