I'll illustrate by example:

Code:
$ cat a
This is line one of a
This is line two of a
This is line three of a
This is line four of a
$ cat b
This is line one of b
This is line two of b
This is line three of b
This is line four of b
$ cat c
This is line one of c
This is line two of c
This is line three of c
This is line four of c
$ paste -d '|' a b c > d
$ cat d
This is line one of a|This is line one of b|This is line one of c
This is line two of a|This is line two of b|This is line two of c
This is line three of a|This is line three of b|This is line three of c
This is line four of a|This is line four of b|This is line four of c
