|
|
<p>Blest be the tie that binds<br>
|
|
Our hearts in Christian love;<br>
|
|
The fellowship of kindred minds<br>
|
|
Is like that to that above.</p>
|
|
<p>Before our Father’s throne<br>
|
|
We pour our ardent prayers;<br>
|
|
Our fears, our hopes, our aims are one<br>
|
|
Our comforts and our cares.</p>
|
|
<p>We share each other’s woes,<br>
|
|
Our mutual burdens bear;<br>
|
|
And often for each other flows<br>
|
|
The sympathizing tear.</p>
|
|
<p>When we asunder part,<br>
|
|
It gives us inward pain;<br>
|
|
But we shall still be joined in heart,<br>
|
|
And hope to meet again.</p>
|
|
<p>This glorious hope revives<br>
|
|
Our courage by the way;<br>
|
|
While each in expectation lives,<br>
|
|
And longs to see the day.</p>
|
|
<p>From sorrow, toil and pain,<br>
|
|
And sin, we shall be free,<br>
|
|
And perfect love and friendship reign<br>
|
|
Through all eternity.</p>
