Here I am Lord and I'm drowning 
In your sea of forgetfulness 
The chains of yesterday surround me 
I yearn for peace and rest 
I don't want to end up where you found me 
And it echoes in my mind 
Keeps me awake tonight 

I know you've cast my sins as far 
As the East is from the West 
And I stand before you now 
As though I've never sinned but today 
I feel like I'm just one mistake away 
From you leaving me this way 

Jesus 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 again 
In the arms of your mercy I find rest 
Cause you know just how far the East is from the West 
From one scarred hand to the other 

I won't lie, it feels alright to see your name in lights
We all need an 'Atta boy' or 'Atta girl'
But in the end I'd like to hang my hat on more besides
The temporary trappings of this world

I want to leave a legacy
How will they remember me?
Did I choose to love? Did I point to You enough
To make a mark on things?
I want to leave an offering
A child of mercy and grace who
blessed your name unapologetically
And leave that kind of legacy

I don't have to look too far or too long awhile
To make a lengthly list of all that I enjoy
It's an accumulating trinket and a treasure pile
Where moth and rust, thieves and such will soon enough destroy

Not well traveled, not well read, not well-to-do or well bred
Just want to hear instead, "Well Done" good and faithful one...
