The only problem that can happen is you would not have a ground for your electrical in the house if the pipe is cut between the clamp and the copper going into the ground outside. You shouldn't get shocked, if that is what you're worried about.

You have two ground wires coming from the electrical panel how do you connect it to the new water pipe coming into the house?

The electrical code states that if the grounding electrode is to be a metallic water pipe it is to be attached to the street side of the water meter or if not possible as near as practicable to the point of entrance of the water service in the building. You will need to purchase a pipe grounding clamp to make the connection. To stop stray circulating currents from happening all metallic systems should be bonded to each other and to ground.DON'T!You shouldn't connect electrical service ground wires to pipes; it causes electrolysis of the pipe and slowly dissolves some of the metal.Ground wires should be connected to a ground rod that is driven into... the ground.
