1 Ev’ry day grows brighter,
And my load is lighter,
Since the Saviour pardoned my sin,
For my Lord is nearer,
And His love is dearer,
Since Jesus pardoned all my sin.

Refrain:
Since Jesus pardoned all my sin,
Since the Comforter abides within;
Ev’ry day grows brighter,
And my lord is lighter,
Since Jesus pardoned all my sin.

2 Now His love is growing,
And my heart o’erflowing,
From His Spirit dwelling within;
All my paths before me,
Are now filled with glory
Since Jesus pardoned all my sin. [Refrain]

3 With my sins forgiven,
I am bound for heaven,
And an entrance today I’ll win;
What a happy meeting,
All our loved ones greeting
Since Jesus pardoned all my sin. [Refrain]
