Growing Dearer Each Day

How sweet is the love of my Sav­ior!

’Tis bound­less and deep as the sea;

And best of it all

it is dai­ly

Growing sweet­er and sweet­er to me.

Sweeter and sweet­er to me

Dearer and dear­er each day;

Oh

won­der­ful love of my Sav­ior

Growing dear­er each step of my way!

I know He is ev­er be­side me!

Eternity on­ly will prove

The height and the depth of His mer­cy

And the breadth of His in­fi­nite love.

Wherever He leads I will fol­low

Thru sor­row

or sha­dow or sun;

And though I be tried in the fur­nace

I can say

Lord

Thy will be it done.

Some day face to face I shall see Him

And oh

what a joy it will be

To know that His love

now so pre­cious

Will for­ev­er grow sweet­er to me!
