That is Far Enough for Me

Author: Avis M. Burgeson Hymnal: The Tabernacle Hymns #70 (1918) First Line: As far as the East is removed from the West Lyrics: 1 As far as the East is removed from the West, So far that no eye can see, My sins are removed, and oh, praise the Lord! That is far enough for me. That is far enough for me, Far enough for me; As far as the East is removed from the West, That is far enough for me. 2 Far down in the ocean’s unsearchable depths, Far down in the raging sea, My sins He has buried, and praise His dear name, That is far enough for me. That is far enough for me, Far enough for me; Far down in the ocean’s unsearchable depths, That is far enough for me. 3 My sins are on Jesus, I know I am safe; It matters not where they be, Since He has redeemed me, they’ve gone from my soul, That is good enough for me. That is good enough for me, Good enough for me; Since He has redeemed me, they’ve gone from my soul, That is good enough for me.
