Sweeter as the Years Go By
Author: Lelia N. Morris, 1862-1929 Appears in 118 hymnals Topics: Praise and Testimony First Line: Of Jesus' love that sought me Lyrics: 1 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.

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.
2 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. [Chorus]
3 ’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. [Chorus] Used With Tune: [Of Jesus' love that sought me]

O Could I Speak the Matchless Worth
Author: Samuel Medley, 1738-1799 Appears in 740 hymnals Topics: The Christian Way of Life Praise and Testimony Lyrics: 1 O could I speak the matchless worth,
O could I sound the glories forth
Which in my Savior shine,
I'd soar and touch the hev'nly strings,
And vie with Gabriel while he sings
In notes almost divine,
In notes almost divine.
2 I'd sing the precious blood He spilt,
My ransom from the deadful guilt
Of sin and wrath divine!
I'd sing His glorious righteousness,
In which all-perfect heavenly dress
My soul shall ever shine,
My soul shall ever shine.
3 I'd sing the characters He bears,
And all the forms of love He wears,
Exalted on His throne:
In loftiest songs of sweetest praise,
I would to everlasting days
Make all His glories known,
Make all His glories known.
4 Soon the delightful day will come
When my dear Lord will bring me home,
And I shall see His face;
Then with my Saviour, Brother, Friend,
A blest eternity I'll spend,
Triumphant in His grace,
Triumphant in His grace.
Amen. Used With Tune: ARIEL
