LyicsHOW blest the sacred tie that binds
In sweet communion kindred minds!
How glad the heavenly course thy run,
Whose hearts, whose faith, whose hopes are one!
To each the soul of each how dear!
What tender love! what holy fear!
How does the generous flame within
Refine from earth and cleans from sin!
Nor shall the glorious flame expire,
When dimly burns frail nature's fire:
Then shall they meet in realms above,
And celebrate their Saviour's love.
