Author: John Fawcett, 1740-1817Hymnal: Worship and Service Hymnal #168 (1957)First Line: Blest be the tie that bindsLyrics:
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 When we asunder part,
It gives us inward pain;
But we shall still be joined in heart,
And hope to meet again.
Amen.Topics: Anniversaries; Church Her Fellowship and Unity; Dismissal; Farewells; Fellowship with MenLanguages: EnglishTune Title: DENNIS

While he remains alive.

Our courage by the way;
While each in expectation lives,
And longs to see the day.
