[V1]
Blest be the tie that binds,
Our 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.

The sympathizing tear.
[V4]
When we asunder part,
It gives us inward pain;
But we shall still be joined in heart,
And never part again.
