The Old Story in Song ‎#102

102. Growing Brighter Every Day

1 I can ne’er forget the day when Jesus saved me
Speaking pardon to my guilty, sin-sick soul,
Or the blessed words of comfort there he gave me,
“Go in peace, thy faith hath sav’d and made thee whole.”

Refrain:
Growing brighter ev’ry day,
Growing better all the way,
Let the hallelujahs roll,
Jesus sweetly saves my soul,
And my way is growing brighter ev’ry day.

2 What he gave me in that hour was but a foretaste
Of the fulness of his blessing yet in store,
And the sunlight of his presence groweth brighter,
Day by day his grace aboundeth more and more. [Refrain]

3 In his pastures green and large I’m ever feeding,
And my thirst is quench’d where living waters flow,
While from “grace to grace” the Spirit still is leading
And from “glory unto glory” here below. [Refrain]

4 I am resting on the wonderful assurance
While so crowned with glory is my pilgrim way;
“That the pathway of the just still brighter groweth,
Shining more and more unto the perfect day. [Refrain]
