Blest Be the Tie That Binds

Author: John Fawcett Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 2,366 hymnals Topics: Christian Friendship Lyrics: 1 Blest be the tie that binds our hearts in Christian love: the fellowship of kindred minds is like to that above. 2 Before the Father's throne we pour our ardent prayers; our fears, our hopes, our aims are one, our comforts and our cares. 3 We share our mutual woes, our mutual burdens bear, and often for each other flows the sympathizing tear. 4 When we asunder part, it gives us inward pain; but we shall still be joined in heart, and hope to meet again. 5 This glorious hope revives our courage by the way, while each in expectation lives, and longs to see the day. 6 From sorrow, toil and pain, and sin, we shall be free; and perfect love and friendship reign through all eternity. Scripture: Galatians 3:28 Used With Tune: DENNIS

What a Friend we have in Jesus

Author: Joseph Scriven Appears in 1,778 hymnals Topics: Fellowship-Friendship Lyrics: 1 What a friend we have in Jesus, All our sins and griefs to bear; What a privilege to carry Everything to God in prayer. Oh, what peace we often forfeit, Oh, what needless pain we bear-- All because we do not carry Everything to God in prayer. 2 Have we trials and temptations? Is there trouble anywhere? We should never be discouraged, Take it to the Lord in prayer. Can we find a friend so faithful, Who will all our sorrows share? Jesus knows our every weakness, Take it to the Lord in prayer. 3 Are we weak and heavy laden, Cumbered with a load of care? Precious Saviour, still our refuge,-- Take it to the Lord in prayer Do thy friends despice, forsake thee? Take it to the Lord in prayer; In His arms He'll take and shield thee, Thou wilt find a solace there. Used With Tune: [What a friend we have in Jesus]
