The Altar and The Door
[Intro]
Em G D
Em G D
[Verse 1]
C/E D/F# Em Here I am, Lord and I'm drowning G C/E In Your sea of forgetfulness D/F# Em The chains of yesterday surround me G C/E I yearn for peace and rest D Em I don't want to end up where You found me G/B C D/F# C And it echoes in my mind, keeps me awake tonight
[Verse 2]
C/E D/F# Em I know You've cast my sin as far as G C/E As the east is from the west D/F# Em And I stand before You now as G C/E As though I've never sinned D Em G/B But today I feel like I'm just one mistake away C D/F# From You leaving me this way C Jesus can You show me just how
[Chorus]
Em G D Far the east is from the west Am 'Cause I can't bear to see the man I've been C Come rising up in me again Em G D In the arms of Your mercy I find rest Am C 'Cause You know just how far the east is from the west
From one scarred hand to the other
[Instrumental]
Em D Em D
[Verse 3]
C/E D/F# Em I start the day, the war begins G C/E Endless reminding of my sin D/F# Em Time and time again Your truth is drowned out G C/E By the storm I'm in D Em G/B Today I feel like I'm just one mistake away C D/F# From You leaving me this way C Jesus can You show me just how
[Chorus]
Em G D Far the east is from the west Am 'Cause I can't bear to see the man I've been C Come rising up in me again Em G D In the arms of Your mercy I find rest Am C 'Cause You know just how far the east is from the west D From one scarred hand to the other
[Bridge]
G D/F# I know You've washed me white Em Turn my darkness into light C/E I need Your peace to get me through C G To get me through this night Bm I can't live by what I feel Em But by the truth Your word reveals C And I'm not holding on to You Em D But You're holding on to me Em D You're holding on to me
[Chorus] (watch out, chords are different!)
G D/F# Jesus, You know just how far the east is from the west Em I don't have to see the man I've been C/E C Come rising up in me again G D/F# In the arms of Your mercy I find rest (mercy I find rest) Am C You know just how far the east is from the west Em From one scarred hand to the other
[Ending]
(Em) D Em D (Just how far, the east is from the west, just how far) Em From one scarred hand to the other D Em C (You know just how far, the east is from the west, just how far)
From one scarred hand to the other
