Author: John Fawcett Hymnal: The New Church Hymnal #225 (1976) Lyrics: 1 Blest be the tie that bindsOur hearts in Christian love!The fellowship of kindred mindsIs like to that above.2 Before our Father's throneWe 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 flowsThe sympathizing tear.4 When we asunder partIt gives us inward pain;But we shall still be joined in heart,And hope to meet again.
