Paroles et Strophes
4 parties
Verse 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.
Verse 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.
Verse 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 reecho With our Redeemer's praise.
Chorus
Sweeter as the years go by, (Sweeter as the years go by,) Sweeter as the years go by, ('Tis sweeter as the years go by;) Richer, fuller, deeper, Jesus' love is sweeter, Sweeter as the years go by.
