Growing Brighter Every Day

Mrs. C. H. Morris • English

Primary Scripture: Proverbs 4:18

Verse 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.”

Chorus

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.

Verse 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.

Chorus

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.

Verse 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.

Chorus

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.

Verse 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.

Chorus

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.
