This Christian hymn beautifully describes the many layers and relationships faithfully working for restoration from human trafficking. This woman and her son daily being restored to their selves and in their relationship; the global church standing with them making choices daily to restore freedom. All a witness of the power of Christian love.
Blest be the tie that binds
our hearts in Christian love;
The fellowship of kindred minds
is like to that above.
Before our Father’s throne
we pour our ardent prayers;
Our fears, our hopes, our aims
are one, our comforts and our cares.
We share our mutual woes,
our mutual burdens bear;
And often for each other flows
the sympathizing tear.
When we asunder part,
it gives us inward pain;
But we shall still be joined in heart,
and hope to meet again.
– John Fawcett
