Lyrics
Verse 1
Blest be the tie that binds Our hearts in Christian love! The fellowship of kindred minds Is like to that above.
Verse 2
Before our Father's throne We pour our ardent prayers; Our fears, our hopes, our aims are one, Our comforts, and our cares.
Verse 3
We share our mutual woes, Our mutual burdens bear, And often for each other flows The sympathizing tear.
Verse 4
When we asunder part, It gives us inward pain; But we shall still be joined in heart, And hope to meet again.
