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.

Refrain

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.

Refrain

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.

Refrain

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.
