Author: George MacDonald, 1824-1905 Hymnal: Together in Song #277 (1999) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 He who by a mother’s love
made the wandering world his own
every year comes from above,
comes the parted to atone,
binding earth to the Father's throne,
binding earth to the Father's throne.
2 But thou comest every day.
No, thou never didst depart,
never hour has been away:
always with us, Lord, thou art,
always with us, Lord, thou art,
binding, binding heart to heart.
