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.

According to the Article, why is the X2 roller coaster not for the fearful? Press enter to interact with the item, and press tab
blondinia [14]

Answer:

Because it has steep drops and seats that turn completely around  

Explanation:

Although you did not mention the article to which the question refers, we can say that the X² roller coaster was not made for fearful because of its numerous steep descents and its ability to rotate the train seats back and forth in 360 degrees, this being its main characteristic.

The rotation that the accents give are controlled by two tracks, however, the experience is totally modified and the ride on the X² allows an adrenaline rush much greater than any other roller coaster.

When a story’s details make you feel the same way the character do the story had created
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

<u>an emotional connection with you the reader</u>

Explanation:

What this means is that the author has successfully immersed his readers into the story, such that the readers begin to imagine what the characters feel, do, and see.

For example, a story that recounts the tragic loss of a beloved friend by a character could make an avid reader to show an outburst of sadness or tears.
