The fel-low-ship of kin-dred minds is like to that a- bove.


[[Full Lyrics]]

[Verse 1]
Blest be the tie that binds
our hearts in Christian love;
the fellowship of kindred minds
is like to that above.

[Verse 2]
Before our Father’s throne
we pour our ardent prayers;
our fears, our hopes, our aims are one,
our comforts and our cares.

[Verse 3]
We share each other’s woes,
our mutual burdens bear;
and often for each other flows
the sympathizing tear.

[Verse 4]
When we asunder part,
it gives us inward pain;
but we shall still be joined in heart,
and hope to meet again.
