The Sea of Forgetfulness
I stand before you guilty and unworthy
How can I be forgiven and holy
And I know I break your heart
But you promised I could start all over
And all the things I've done
You've placed them each and every one
CHORUS
Into the sea of forgetfulness
You've placed all of my sins
For I'm the one who keeps reminding you
Over and over again
Into the sea of forgetfulness
As far as the east from the west
Seventy times seven
You've forgiven me
And you keep cleansing me
And placing my sins into the sea of
Forgetfulness
You welcome me with open arms of mercy
In spite of all I've done
You still keep loving me
And I only need to ask
And you erase all my past forever
My debts have all been paid
And they've all been washed away...
Chorus
Its you're unfailing love that covers me
And all my multitude of sins
It's your steadfast love
That keeps reminding me that I'm forgiven
Chorus
...
Placing my sins into the sea of forgetfulness
