My Dearest Friends in Bonds of Love

Author: Anonymous Hymnal: The Christian Hymnary. Bks. 1-4 #620 (1972) Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Topics: Seasons, Days, Services Farewell Services First Line: My dearest friends, in bonds of love Lyrics: 1 My dearest friends, in bonds of love, Our hearts in sweetest union prove; Your friendship's like a drawing band, Yet we must take the parting hand. Your presence sweet, your union dear, Your words delightful to my ear; And when I see that we must part, You draw like cords around my heart. 2 How sweet the hours have passed away, When we have met to sing and pray; How loath I've been to leave the place Where Jesus shows His smiling face. Oh, could I stay with friends so kind, How would it cheer my struggling mind! But duty makes me understand That we must take the parting hand. 3 And since it is God's holy will, We must be parted for awhile, In sweet submission all in one, We'll say, "Our Father's will be done." Dear fellow youth in Christian ties, Who seek for mansions in the skies, Fight on, you'll win the happy shore, Where parting hands are known no more. 4 How oft I've seen the flowing tears, And heard you tell your hopes and fears; Your hearts with love have seemed to flame, Which makes me hope we'll meet again. Ye mourning souls, in sad surprise, Jesus remembers all your cries; Oh, taste His grace, in all that land We'll no more take the parting hand. Scripture: 2 Corinthians 13:11 Languages: English Tune Title: PARTING HAND

What a privilege to carry Everything to God in prayer!

We should never be discouraged: Take it to the Lord in prayer! Can we find a friend so faithful, Who will all our sorrows share? Jesus knows our every weakness— Take it to the Lord in prayer! 3 Are we weak and heavy-laden, Cumbered with a load of care? Precious Saviour, still our Refuge— Take it to the Lord in prayer! Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? Take it to the Lord in prayer! In His arms He'll take and shield thee, Thou wilt find a solace there. Amen. Tune Title: WHAT A FRIEND

Blest be the tie that binds

Author: John Fawcett Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #285a (1961) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Farewell Service 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. 5 This glorious hope revives Our courage by the way, While each in expectation lives, And longs to see the day. 6 From sorrow, toil and pain, And sin, we shall be free; And perfect love and friendship reign Through all eternity. Amen. Scripture: Galatians 3:28 Languages: English Tune Title: BOYLSTON
