To Jesus every day we find our hearts are
|
|
| 1. | To Jesus every day we find our hearts are |
| | closer drawn; |
| | He's fairer than the sons of men and fresher |
| | than the morn; |
| | He's all that we can say of Him in fairest |
| | words and more, |
| | And every day He's dearer than He was the |
| | day before! |
| | |
| | The half cannot be fancied of such a |
| | treasure-store, |
| | And every day He's dearer than He ever |
| | was before! |
| | |
| 2. | His glory broke upon us when we saw Him |
| | in the church, |
| | For here are all His riches, here we've given |
| | up our search; |
| | 'Tis here He satisfies our longing spirits o'er |
| | and o'er, |
| | And every day He's dearer than He was the |
| | day before. |
| 3. | Now He's the living Spirit who within our |
| | spirit dwells, |
| | And by His sweet anointing, how His life |
| | within us swells! |
| | As with the saints we're meeting, full |
| | released our spirits soar, |
| | For now our Lord is dearer than He ever was |
| | before. |
| 4. | The Lord has made us one with Him for His |
| | recovery; |
| | The riches of this Christ, the church His |
| | fullness, men must see. |
| | Yes, all we have and all we are, we every |
| | day outpour |
| | For His tremendous purpose, ever dearer |
| | than before. |
