Blessed Be the Tie

Author: Rev. John Fawcett Hymnal: NCH1929 #276 (1929) Meter: 6.6.8.6 First Line: Blest be the tie that binds Lyrics: 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 our mutual 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.

Fill Thou My Life, O Lord, My God

Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: NCH1929 #277 (1929) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1. Fill Thou, my life, O Lord, my God, In ev'ry part with praise, That my whole being may proclaim Thy being and Thy ways; Not for the lip of praise alone, Nor e'en the praising heart, I ask, but for a life made up Of praise in ev'ry part. 2. Praise in the common words I speak, Life's common looks and tones, In intercouse at hearth or board With my beloved ones,-- Enduring wrong, reproach, or loss With sweet and steadfast will, Loving and blessing those who hate, Returning good for ill. 3. So shall each fear, each fret, each care, Be turned into song, And ev'ry winding of the way The echo shall prolong; So shall no part of day or night From sacredness be free, But all my life, in ev'ry step, Be fellowship with Thee.

Nearer, still nearer, close to Thy heart, Draw me, my Savior, so precious Thou art; Fold me, O fold me close to Thy breast, Shelter me safe in that "Haven of Rest," Shelter me safe in that "Haven of Rest." 2. Nearer, still nearer, nothing I bring, Naught as an off'ring to Jesus my King; Only my sinful, now contrite heart, Grant me the cleansing Thy blood doth impart, Grant me the cleansing Thy blood doth impart. 3. Nearer, still nearer, Lord, to be Thine, Sin, with its follies, I gladly resign; All of its pleasures, pomp and its pride, Give me but Jesus, my Lord crucified, Give me but Jesus, my Lord crucified. 4. Nearer, still nearer, while life shall last, Till safe in glory my anchor is cast; Thro' endless ages, ever to be, Nearer, my Savior, still nearer to Thee. Nearer, my Savior, still nearer to Thee.
