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

​

5.

From sorrow, toil, and pain,
and sin, we shall be free;
and perfect love and friendship reign
through all eternity.
