You are not what I was braced for.
You are slow to anger, and You did not stay.
You have not dealt with me after my sins.
You never gave me what I earned.

As far as the east is from the west,
that is how far You have carried it away.
As far as the east is from the west -
it is gone. It is gone. It is gone.

As high as the sky is over the ground,
that is the mercy standing over us.
You are not counting. You are not keeping it.
You put it where I cannot find it.

As far as the east is from the west,
that is how far You have carried it away.
As far as the east is from the west -
it is gone. It is gone. It is gone.

Like a father with a child who fell,
You know what we are made of.
You remember we are dust.
You remember we are dust.

As far as the east is from the west,
that is how far You have carried it away.
As far as the east is from the west -
it is gone. It is gone. It is gone.

It is gone.
It is gone.
