Stanza 1
Blest be the tie that binds
Our hearts in Christian love;
The fellowship of kindred minds
Is like to that above.
Stanza 2
Before our Father’s throne
We pour our ardent prayers;
Our fears, our hopes, our aims are one,
Our comforts and our cares.
Stanza 3
We share each other’s woes,
Our mutual burdens bear;
And often for each other flows
The sympathizing tear.
