Two Hearts Sown As One

Our hearts are woven together 
Not by human strands 
But from the very mouth of God 
Where all of our plans begin 
It was His great pleasure 
To bring us two together 
With words and thoughts of love and treasure 
Gold strands through needles’ eye so fine 
That it cuts through the edge of time 
Sown with thread so rare 
Love’s true cost sown in without care 
Hearts bound for glee and stormy seas 
With God’s sail upon our ship 
With master Captain at its helm 
Will guide us through this earthly realm 
At last on distance shores we land 
Together we join Him in the Promised Land 
And thank Him for a job well done 
For our two hearts sown as one

Have you ever heard the song "Silver Threads and Golden Needles"? That was recorded by an English folk group called The Springfields. The song was also covered some years later by Linda Ronstadt. The wording to your work reminds me a bit of the lyrics to the song. This is impressive.
