First Line: Still sweeter every day,

1
To Jesus ev'ry day I find my heart is closer drawn;
He's fairer than the glory of the gold and purple dawn;
He's all my fancy pictured in its fairest dreams and more;
Each day he grows still sweeter than he was the day before.

Chorus:
The half cannot be fancied, this side the golden shore;
O there he'll be still sweeter than he ever was before.

2
His glory broke upon me when I saw him from afar;
He's fairer than the lily, brighter than the morning star;
He fills and satisfies my longing spirit o'er and o'er;
Each day he grows still sweeter than he was the day before. [Chorus]

3
My heart is sometimes heavy, but he comes with sweet relief;
He folds me to his bosom when I droop with blighting grief,
I love the Christ who all my burdens in his body bore;
Each day he grows still sweeter than he was the day before. [Chorus]
