Two Lives United
Two lives united, one heart beating in time
One fire ignited, two voices making one rhyme
A new song is started, the rhythm is beginning to flow
A love enduring, it’s more real than you can know.
The melody is changing, a different chorus starting today
New notes are added, transforming you day by day
A fire is burning, setting two hearts ablaze
Two lives united, serving our Lord with praise.
Christ is in your hearts, He is there for you
When times get tough, our Lord will pull you through
Committed together, one love shining through
A band of three cords, between our God and you.
We long to se what our Lord will do
In two lives united, devoted and so true
We long to hear the poetry
Written in your hearts, and now it’s plain to see.
One flame burning, growing stronger
One love yearning, soaring yonder
The rhythm is there and love is starting to grow
It’s overflowing – now the whole world will know.
That your two lives are united
One heart is beating in time
One fire is ignited
Two voices are making one rhyme.
Two lives united, one heart beating in time
One fire ignited, two voices making one rhyme.

What therefore God hath joined together,
let not man put asunder.
