     13 The wicked is snared by the transgression of his lips: but the just shall come out of trouble.

     14 A man shall be satisfied with good by the fruit of his mouth: and the recompense of a man’s hands shall be rendered unto him.

     15 The way of a fool is right in his own eyes: but he that hearkeneth unto counsel is wise.

     16 A fool’s wrath is presently known: but a prudent man covereth shame.

     17 He that speaketh truth sheweth forth righteousness: but a false witness deceit.

     18 There is that speaketh like the piercings of a sword: but the tongue of the wise is health.

     19 The lip of truth shall be established for ever: but a lying tongue is but for a moment.(KJV)

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 here our pathways part, 
We suffer bitter pain; 
Yet, one in Christ and one in heart, 
We 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.
