Blest Be the Tie That Binds
Just a moment to share with my fellow Christian Liberals.. and everyone..
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 each other's woes,
our mutual burdens bear;
and often for each other flows
the sympathizing tear.
4. When we asunder part,
it gives us inward pain;
but we shall still be joined in heart,
and hope to meet again.

My church always sings this immediately prior to our benediction, and has done so for at least 4 generations. Like you, I am particularly fond of Verse 3.
a capella is how it sounds the best
