[Title: THESE WERE THE HEAVENS] [Verse 1] At midnight one day became another, Two lives met underneath the sky. October sixteen at DFW— We didn't know the road or why. Mercury and Venus together, Mars crossed both our natal lines. Uranus stood upon her Mars— The heavens keeping days and times. [Pre-Chorus] We didn't ask the stars to name us. We didn't ask them who we'd be. We looked above and kept on walking— Years before we'd turn and see. [Hook] THESE WERE THE HEAVENS WHEN OUR TWO LIVES MET. THESE WERE THE HEAVENS WHEN WE OPENED THE BOOK. THESE WERE THE HEAVENS WHEN TWO BECAME ONE. THESE WERE THE HEAVENS WHEN WE WENT THROUGH THE WATER CONFESSING THE SON. Signs and seasons, Days and years— The heavens declare THE GLORY OF GOD. [Verse 2] December third we opened Scripture, Jupiter crossed Capricorn. Sun aligned with Moon and Venus, While together we searched His Word. Fourteen days and we were married, Venus high in Capricorn. Jupiter, Saturn, Pluto with her— Two became one before the Lord. [Hook] THESE WERE THE HEAVENS WHEN OUR TWO LIVES MET. THESE WERE THE HEAVENS WHEN WE OPENED THE BOOK. THESE WERE THE HEAVENS WHEN TWO BECAME ONE. THESE WERE THE HEAVENS WHEN WE WENT THROUGH THE WATER CONFESSING THE SON. Signs and seasons, Days and years— The heavens declare THE GLORY OF GOD. [Verse 3] Thirty-three days after marriage, January nineteenth came. Down into the water together, Up confessing Jesus' name. Sun and Jupiter in Capricorn, Saturn, Pluto nearly one. Mars aligned with Moon and Venus, Heaven stood above what we'd begun. Neptune met his natal Mars, Mars and Jupiter answered in degree. We never knew those lines were there— We were too busy learning whom we believed. [Bridge — FULLY SUNG, STRONG AND CLEAR] “He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names.” HE NUMBERED THEM. HE NAMED THEM. HE SET THE LIGHTS ABOVE. “For signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:” We met beneath them. We opened the Book beneath them. We married beneath them. We entered the water beneath them. And years afterward we turned around— AND LOOKED. [Build — SUNG, NOT SPOKEN] What were the heavens doing? THEY WERE MOVING. THEY WERE KEEPING TIME. What were we doing? MEETING. SEARCHING. MARRYING. TESTIFYING. And what does the Book say? “The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.” [Final Hook — FULL VOICE] THESE WERE THE HEAVENS WHEN OUR TWO LIVES MET. THESE WERE THE HEAVENS WHEN WE OPENED THE BOOK. THESE WERE THE HEAVENS WHEN TWO BECAME ONE. THESE WERE THE HEAVENS WHEN WE STOOD IN THE WATER CONFESSING THE SON. Signs and seasons, Days and years— Now we look backward and remember the years. THESE WERE THE HEAVENS. THIS WAS OUR JOURNEY. THIS IS OUR TESTIMONY. But every star, every season, every mile we have trod— THE HEAVENS DECLARE THE GLORY OF GOD. JESUS IS THE LORD
