330b Fellowship

Words: John Fawcett, 1782

Music: Paine Denson, 1935

Meter: Short Meter (6,6,8,6)

Blest be the tie that binds
Our hearts to Christian love;
The fellowship of kindred minds
Is like to that above.

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.
