Hymnal: Crowning Day No. 2 #224 (1896) First Line: How blest the sacred tie that binds Lyrics: 1 How blest the sacred tie that binds In union sweet according minds! How swift the heav’nly course they run, Whose hearts, and faith, and hopes are one! 2 To each the soul of each how dear! What jealous love, what holy fear! How doth the generous flame within Refine from earth and cleanse from sin! 3 Their streaming eyes together flow, For human guilt and mortal woe; Their ardent pray’r united rise Like mingling flames in sacrifice. 4 Nor shall the glowing flame expire ‘Mid nature’s drooping, sick’ning fire; Soon shall they meet in realms above, A heaven of joy, because of love.
