We look at the ties the bind

They offer peace of mind

They show a love

Sent by heaven above

They show the peace

That will never decrease

They show the journey

God chose for us only

They show the way

We live every day

They show the power

We feel hour after hour

They show the treasure we hold

And the story to be told

The ties that bind

Are very real

Too difficult to conceal

They keep us close

Cause love matters most

They fill the heart

With where to start

They offer a guide

And a pride we cannot hide

They contain the dreams

That make us burst at the seams

They remove our fear

They show God is near

They show God’s will

And why we stood still

They show the purpose

Lying at the surface

They show every step we take

The memories we’ll make

What’s in the soul

What makes life whole

And our peace of mind

Because of the ties that bind
