East and West - Cageless Birds, Jonathan David Helser

East went lookin' for west

And never found him

Guilt went lookin' for my past

But only found love

I heard about a sea where

Sin sinks like stones

There’s no floor

There’s just mercy down below

You can run for all your days

But you’ll never run away

There’s no mistake I can make

That could ever make you change

Your love

I heard about a man with holes in his hands

He can hide mountains of sin in them

His smile destroys my religion

His love shakes down my prison

You can run for all your days

But you’ll never run away

There’s no mistake I can make

That could ever make you change

Your love

Oh, oh

East went lookin' for west and never found him

As far as the east is from the west

So far has he removed our transgressions from us

Psalm 103:12
