The two cords which entwine our hearts can fray and come undone. A three fold cord will make us stronger than if we stand as one. God makes up the third cord in the sacred love that binds forever. Trust in him and the abundance of his grace will help us stay together.
When trouble comes and tests arise, then worry not your heart. If our faith is strong no man on earth could break our love apart. When death eventually separates us then hold my memory near And know that the waters of my love ran so deep, so true and clear.
The first rain that falls will wash away the innocent and the damned of this fragile institution, marriage, built upon such shifting sands So trust in God and forgive the sins of fathers and their sons And bless the holy union that brought two and made them one.
