1.    The dear old story of the Saviour’s love
       Is sweeter as the days go by;
       The glad assurance of a home above,
       Is sweeter as the days go by.

                 CHORUS

       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.

2.    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.

3.    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.

4.    The peace that Jesus gives to us anew,
       Is deeper as the days go by;
       The prospects op’ning to the Christian’s view,
       Are grander as the days go by.
