Blessed Be the Tie That Binds

Blessed 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 each other’s 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.

This glorious hope revives
Our courage by the way;
While each in expectation lives,
And longs to see the day.

From sorrow, toil and pain,
And sin, we shall be free,
And perfect love and friendship reign
Through all eternity.

Which of the following is NOT a correct word - definiton pairing?
Naddika [18.5K]
Effect because if you've ever heard of stationary paper it is like pretty paper to write letters on, they used that before sc and texting came along, I am guilty of using it to write to pen pals and further is like when a teacher says furthermore, which means like if they are expanding on a topic so it is like adding onto what is already said and complement means like if you've ever heard someone say oh that shirt complements your eyes meaning that they go well together. effect means something that has happened or how it is different
