Past Is Past Lyrics

by Dan Meredith

Jerry was a guy
Who couldn't get it right.
From the time he was a kid
He took on every fight.
Trouble seemed to find him
Everywhere he'd go.
He wanted to start over,
But he didn't know...

CHORUS
What's past is past, what's done is done,
When you give your life to God's Holy Son.
Don't let it get you down
He'll turn your life around
He'll pardon all your sin
Are you ready to begin?
What's past is past, what's done is done,
It's covered by the blood of the Holy One.
Let Jesus pick you up,
He will fill your cup.
He'll pardon all your sin
Are you ready to begin?

Stephen was a man
Loaded down with guilt.
Not happy with his life
His heart began to wilt.
He knew he had it all
Two cars, a house, and a great job.
But he didn't know his kids
And that fact made him sob.

CHORUS

Kenny was a sinner
He knew that for sure.
He wanted God to love him
So he tried to become pure.
He knew couldn't get to God
In such a sinful state.
He tried to earn it on his own,
But that was his mistake.

CHORUS

Jerry finally figured out
That God makes all things clean.
And Stephen started over
With the kids he'd hardly seen.
Kenny learned that Jesus
Died for all his sin.
They all received from Jesus
A new chance to begin.

CHORUS

Perhaps you have been feeling
Lonely and afraid.
Trapped by your past
And the choices you have made.
Give your life to Jesus,
You can begin again.
He makes all things new,
When you make Him your friend.
