Author: John Fawcett Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 2,280 hymnals Topics: Communion of Saints 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 our 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 From sorrow, toil, and pain,
And sin, we shall be free;
And perfect love and friendship reign
Through all eternity.
Amen. Scripture: Galatians 6:2 Used With Tune: DENNIS
Blest Be the Tie That Binds
