Lyics

Blest be the dear uniting love 
That will not let us part;
Our bodies may far off remove,
We still are one in heart,
We still are one in heart.


Join'd in one spirit to our Head,
Where he appoints we'll go,
And still in Jesus' footsteps tread,
And show his praise below,
And show his praise below.


Partakers of the Saviour's grace,
The same in mind and heart;
Nor joy, nor grief, nor time, nor place,
Nor life, nor death, can part,
Nor life, nor death, can part.


But let us hasten to that day

Which shall our flesh restore,
When death shall all be done away,
And Christians part no more,
And Christians part no more.
