about

A new setting of the old hymn by John Fawcett. I thought the lyrics of this hymn were particularly relevant during the time that the church wasn't able to gather for corporate worship.

lyrics

Blest be the tie that binds
Out hearts in Christian love
The fellowship of kindred minds
Is like to that above
Before our Father's throne
We pour our ardent prayers
Our fears, our hopes, our aims are one
Our comforts and our cares

We share our mutual woes
Our mutual burdens bear
And often for each other flows
The sympathizing tear
When we asunder part
It gives us inward pain
But we shall still be joined in heart
And hope to meet again.

This glorious hope revives
Our courage on the way;
While each in expectation lives
And longs to see that day
From sorrow, toil, and pain,
And sin we shall be free
And perfect love and friendship reign
Through all eternity
