Pulling Down the Past

For years my heart had struggled
Till the freedom came at last
And though I claimed forgiveness
I was a prisoner to the past
But the war within grew silent
And my doubts were all erased
For when I saw the walls removed
God was standing in their place

He's pulling down the past
He's tearing walls apart
(Tearing the walls apart)
He's clearing out the storms
That were clouding up the heart
He's building my tomorrows
On a foundation that will last
There's nothing to see when I look back
'Cause He's pulling down the past

(Free at last, pulling down the past)
(Free at last, free at last)

Now I still have times of struggle
With the memories in my mind
Yet I'm no longer shackled
To what I left behind
And now His blood has covered
All the things that I regret
For even as the Lord forgives
I'm assured that He forgets

He's pulling down the past
He's tearing walls apart
(Tearing the walls apart)
He's clearing out the storms
That were clouding up the heart
He's building my tomorrows
On a foundation that will last
'Cause there's just nothing to see
When I look back
'Cause He's pulling down the past

I was a prisoner to the past
Ooh, now I found I'm free at last

He's pulling down the past
He's pulling down the past
He's tearing walls apart
(Tearing the walls apart)
He's clearing out the storms
That were clouding up the heart
He's building my tomorrows
On a foundation that will last
There's nothing to see when I look back
'Cause He's pulling down the past

He's pulling down the past
He's tearing walls apart
He's clearing out the storms
That were clouding up the heart
He's building my tomorrows
On a foundation that will last
There's nothing to see when I look back
'Cause He's pulling down the past

(Free at last)
Well, I'm free at last
'Cause He's pulling down the past
