Yesterday is over
all the sands have passed through the hourglass
but you’re still here
Yesterday is over
the sun has finally set on all the words you said
but you hold on to everything
yeah you hold on to everything
open up your hands

And let go of what’s behind you (Philippians 3:13-14)
the past can’t hurt you anymore or keep you on the ground (2 Corinthians 5:17)
will you let this be the moment that you let go of yourself (Luke 9:23)
Let His love hold on to you (Isaiah 41:13; Psalm 73:22-26)

Yesterday is over
the dust has come to rest on all the tears you left
but you’re still here
Yesterday is over
the storm has come to an end six feet from where you stand
but you hold on to everything
yeah you hold on to everything
open up your hands

And He won’t let go, and He won’t let go (Deuteronomy 31:8; John 10:28)
His eyes are always set on you (Psalm 33:18)
His arms are always holding you (Isaiah 40:11)
and He won’t let go
But You gotta let go of everything (Hebrews 12:1)
You gotta let go of everything
Open up your hands
