How Far
How far is the east from the west
Is it the line in the middle of your chest
Or the pointed fingers on your right and left
Would accross the ocean divide it best
Our sins are taken the and we are left
A scale awakened that measures a debt
Are lying lips and failing heart
The reason for charity, a form of art
Sins are taken as far as the eye can see
Or are they just making a burdenous plea
What on this scale weighs more than me
It’s when we add a Savior the east and west will be
