Lyrics

I guess we have al ways (B7)known

that a (Em7)day all like this one would come,

when our chil dren (D)would leave us

when and be (Am7)gin to build a home of their own.

Lord, all You have taught (F#m7)us

we have (Em7)day You gave passed on to them.

But one thing (D)we don’t know dear Je sus, how the (Am7)place them back in Your arms a gain.

Lord, help us (E)let go of two that they might be come one,

(B7sus)just like the (B7)Fa ther, (A)Spir (E)it and Son.

(C#m)Two hearts in vis i bly bound (F#m7)in love by a (A)vow that will not be un done.

I Now in your ten der (B7)care,

Lord, a (Em7)be all that we can not be.

And our help us (D)to trust You

when and be (Am7)see You quick ly meet ing their needs.

For You have pro vid (F#m7)ed

since the (Em7)day You gave our dren to us.

But now in (D)Your arms, know dear Je sus, how the (Am7)time has come for giv ing them up.

Lord, help us (E)let go of two that they might be come one,

(B7sus)just like the (B7)Fa ther, (A)Spir (E)it and Son.

(C#m)Two hearts in vis i bly bound (F#m7)in love by a (A)vow that will not be un done.

The urge is strong to try hold in’ on to the (E)im age of two, (B)the (A)way that (E)we (B)knew (E)them.

But now in Your eyes the two
