Lyrics Blest Be The Tie That Binds - Tennessee Ernie Ford

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

When we asunder part
It gives us inward pain
But we shall still be joines in heart
And hope to meet again
