95 Escort fuel pump wiring

I have a 95 ford escort with a 1.9 L engine. I used it as a derby car and am now turning it into a project. It did run and then I took the wiring from inside the vehicle and moved it all forward to cut the back half of the car off. I then hook the fuel pump and everything backed up but now the fuel pump will not turn on. I'm having some trouble comparing the wiring to diagrams that I have found from the Internet and Mitchell On Demand. I have one wire, next to the fuel pump harness connector that looks like I ripped it off from something but cannot find where it should go. It is a black wire so I assumed ground but it did not work. Any suggestions of what to check? I have made sure that the fuel cut off switch is engaged. To eliminate that could I just cut the two wires going to it and connect them together?

My phone won't let me add pictures of the fuel pump connector. I'll try and add some later.

Apparently the pictures are too large. The wire in question is a single black wire that is in the same loom as the fuel pump connector and doesn't have much room to connect to much anything else.
