"I might
not be a religious man myself but I know good music when I hear it, and this is very
good! . . . I don’t think that I have ever given such high
ratings to so many songs before. But
the fact is that they are well deserved because the
music is amazing. Simply wonderful religious ballads and they
really get to your heart. . .everytime."
Fredrik Cole: Trax In Space
We join our hearts and lift them high,
To You in one accord.
We bring them as an offering of praise unto You, Lord.
We worship You we glorify Your name. (repeat)
The Son of God came down to man,
To shed His royal blood.
A sacrifice, His offering, redeemed us as His sons!
We worship You we glorify Your name. (repeat)
We join our lives and lift them high,
To worship in His name,
We bring them as and offering, a sacrifice of praise!
We worship You we glorify Your name. (repeat)
We join our hands and lift them high
To You in one accord.
We bring them as an offering of praise unto You, Lord.
We worship You we glorify Your name. (repeat)

Song Story
"As always, the music of Wigtune Company keeps the enriched and very
powerful emotions in their songs. There's nothing else to do than give this another high
rating! But it's well deserved with music like this." Fredrik Cole: TraxInSpace
The Book of James explains just how vile the unbridled tongue can be. One moment it
blesses God with praise and the next it curses men with a vengeance. (James 3:1-12) The
hypocrisy of the whole ordeal is near the center of the weakness of the Church.
Gossip is rampant in our churches. On one hand we see believers gathered together in the
church service singing love songs to God. The next hour they stand in the foyer telling
each other that they cant believe another person did this or that so that they can draw
people into their own court. As James declared, My brothers, this should not be.
We Join Our Hearts addresses this issue by encouraging the body of Christ to join together
with one heart as they praise God in unity. One verse in the praise song sings of the work
that Christ did for us on the cross. Did Christ die so that we could bicker with each
other? Did He suffer so that we would praise Him with one side of our mouth while leveling
curses on those He died for? The answer is obviously and emphatic NO!
This truth is so convincing that the song has always provided a blessing in church
services. I wrote it in minor key to denote the somber mood that this understanding of
praise ought to suggest. Many times We Join Our Hearts has been offered up and an
opportunity for Christians to repent of their disunity. Other times it has encouraged and
uplifted everyone present as they joined one anothers hands and lifted them high to the
Lord. Whatever the context, this message of unified praise has always ministered to all.
Years ago I recorded the praise song with Selahs vocals, However, the song files were
deleted from the computer and the vocals were forever lost. I was left to listen to the
instrumentals that include a graceful piano with a flowing string accompaniment. Jjust
recently, though, we have recorded Vanessa singing the song for her CD Amazing Grace. And
God has once again proven just how good He is. After listening to her parts I have come to
the conclusion that I like them even better than the great Selah vocals that vaporized
years ago into the abyss of computerdom. Her gentle solo begins the piece with the sober
message conveyed in the solem words of praise. As the song progresses melodies flow over
each other in a way that allows them to complement each other with perfect harmony. This
is to symbolize the fact that differences among Christians will result in one harmonious
chorus among those who have learned to love each another.
To sobriety of the minor melodies speak of a very serious subject. My prayer is that, as
you listen to the piece, you will contemplate your relationships with other believers.
Perhaps there have been instances when you have hurt others with your tongue. Or, you may
earnestly desire to join hands with others in praise and adoration of Your Lord as you
lift Him up in all of your conversation rather than tearing others down. Be assured, those
who praise God together as one, who worship God with one heart, are the true worshippers
of God.
Wigtune Company was formed as a service to the body of Christ. Our vision is to encourage scriptural worship in the Church by offering free praise music and hymns performed in a contemporary manner along with a free on-line worship study book for personal devotions, Bible study groups, Sunday schools, pastors, music ministers and ministry training. The worship study book lends theological and historical support to the use of traditional Christian hymn-singing in conjunction with praise chorus singing.
