Sweeter as the Days Go By (Hewitt)

The dear old sto­ry of a Sav­ior’s love

Is sweet­er as the days go by;

The glad as­sur­ance of a home abo­ve

Is sweet­er as the days go by.

We’ll fill the days with joy­ful praise

We’ll sing as the hap­py mo­ments fly;

The song of love to Him ab­ove

Grows sweet­er as the days go by.

The sun­beams shin­ing from the liv­ing Light

Are bright­er as the days go by;

The stars of pro­mise cheer­ing sor­row’s night

Are bright­er as the days go by.

Hope’s anchor

hold­ing in the stor­my strife

Is strong­er as the days go by;

We feel the throb­bings of im­mor­tal life

Grow strong­er as the days go by.

The peace that Je­sus gives to us anew

Is deep­er as the days go by;

The pros­pects op­en­ing to the Christ­ian’s view

Are grand­er as the days go by.
