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.
Refrain:
The half cannot be fancied this side the golden shore,
Oh, there He'll be still sweeter than He ever was before.
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.
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.
BIBLE PASSAGE:
2 Thou art fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into thy lips: therefore God hath blessed thee for ever.
