Three Strands
by lynn gipson Standing alone against the wall Pride goeth before the mighty fall A weary man can't find his place Evil then attacks it's prey Walking through the world alone Terror in his soul as one Loner's heart beats fearfully Spirit cries out tearfully Enemies line up to call On he who stands alone at all Fighting ever viciously Tearing at him ruthlessly Suddenly from heaven's floor A loving woman comes ashore Where one was standing all alone Now are two and twice as strong Evil now must stand back Twice the powerful attack One is easy, two are harder Satan retreats into his harbor No longer is the one alone Two have made the union strong Vows of love and honor follow Standing before God's alter Twice the strands the cord is stronger Strife and weakness are no longer Two now stand together as one Fear and agony, they are gone Now comes into play the third strand God in heaven does command The first two cords of this new life A repented man and his wife God joined together this woman and man Bound to each other by two strands The third one makes the bond unbroken For it is God's, and he has spoken One alone can be easily attacked Two together can fight back Three even better, with our Lord For three strands cannot be easily torn.
