Blest be the tie that binds

by John Fawcett

Representative text

As printed in The Seventh-day Adventist Hymnal (1985), no. 350.

Verse 1

Blest be the tie that binds our hearts in Christian love; the fellowship of kindred minds is like to that above.

Verse 2

Before our Father’s throne we pour our ardent prayers; our fears, our hopes, our aims are one, our comforts and our cares.

Verse 3

We share each other’s woes, our mutual burdens bear; and often for each other flows the sympathizing tear.

Verse 4

When we asunder part, it gives us inward pain; but we shall still be joined in heart, and hope to meet again.
