Hymn 641
Blest be the dear uniting love
Meter: C.M.
1
Blest be the dear uniting love,
That will not let us part!
Our bodies may far off remove,
We still are one in heart.
2
Joined in one spirit to our Head,
Where He appoints we go;
And still in Jesus’ footsteps tread,
And show His praise below.
3
O may we ever walk in Him,
And nothing know beside;
Nothing desire, nothing esteem,
But Jesus crucified!
4
Closer and closer let us cleave
To His beloved embrace;
Expect His fullness to receive
And grace to answer grace.
