Music by Johann Georg Nägeli (Arranged by Lowell Mason) Words by John Fawcett VERSE 1 G D7 G Blest be the tie that binds, C G D7 our hearts in Christian love; G D7 G the fellowship of kindred minds C G C G D7 G is like to that above. VERSE 2 G D7 G Before our Father's throne, C G D7 we pour our ardent prayers; G D7 G our fears, our hopes, our aims are one, C G C G D7 G our comforts and our cares. VERSE 3 G D7 G We share our mutual woes; C G D7 our mutual burdens bear; G D7 G and often for each other flows, C G C G D7 G the sympathizing tears. VERSE 4 G D7 G When we asunder part, C G D7 it gives us inward pain; G D7 G but we shall still be joined in heart, C G C G D7 G and hope to meet again.
