Every morning as I look into the mirror, yesterday's mistakes are so painfully clear,
I could let them take me under, be a source of misery, or I could understand the power of the blood that's shed for me.

Often I'm reminded that there's nothing we can do that would take away the sacrifice for me and you,
So when you feel the guilt of the enemy's attack, just know you've been forgiven, and don't look back.

Don't look back,
Yesterday is over, today is a brand new day,
Don't look back,
It's not the answer, no it's not the way.

You can't go forward when you keep looking back,
How can you think about the future when you're haunted by the past'
God don't want you to live like that,
Put your hand to the plough, and don't look back.

I know the straight and narrow is the path that I should see, yet I'm often tempted by the way it used to be,
Seems like only good times keep flashing through my brain, but then I stop and I remember the cost, all the pain.

Don't look back,
Those old temptations were never good for you,
Don't look back,
There's nothing there that can help you get through.

You can't go forward when you keep looking back,
How can you think about the future when you're haunted by the past'
God don't want you to live like that,
Put your hand to the plough, and don't look...
Don't look...

Why do we dig up the old man when there's so much ahead'
Why can't we do what Jesus said, and let the dead bury the dead'

Don't look back,
Yesterday is over, today is a brand new day,
Don't look back,
It's not the answer, no it's not the way.

You can't go forward when you keep looking back,
How can you think about the future when you're haunted by the past'
God don't want you to live like that,
Put your hand to the plough, (don't look back)
You can't go forward when you keep looking back,
How can you think about the future when you're haunted by the past' (don't look back)
God don't want you to live like that,
Put your hand to the plough, (don't look back)
You can't go forward when you keep looking back,
How can you think about the future when you're haunted by the past' (don't look back)
God don't want you to live like that,
Put your hand to the plough, and don't look back.
