Of Je­sus’ love that sought me,
When I was lost in sin;
Of won­drous grace that brought me
Back to His fold again;
Of heights and depths of mer­cy,
Far deep­er than the sea,
And high­er than the heav­ens,
My theme shall ev­er be.

Refrain

Sweeter as the years go by,
Sweeter as the years go by,
Richer, full­er, deep­er,
Jesus’ love is sweet­er,
Sweeter as the years go by.

He trod in old Ju­dea
Life’s path­way long ago;
The peo­ple thronged ab­out Him,
His sav­ing grace to know;
He healed the brok­en heart­ed,
And caused the blind to see;
And still His great heart yearn­eth
In love for ev­en me.

Refrain

’Twas won­drous love which led Him
For us to suf­fer loss,
To bear with­out a mur­mur
The ang­uish of the cross;
With saints re­deemed in glo­ry,
Let us our voic­es raise,
Till Heav’n and earth re-ec­ho
With our Re­deem­er’s praise.
