Angry Opps! Razor blade + Zip ties = cut servo wires

Well the title pretty much explains it all! I was trimming a zip tie off and slipped and nicked my servo wire and cut one of the 3 wires. Now what? What is the best was to repair the wire. Thanks for the help!

solder it back together and shrink or tape it shut.
