1 I love Him each day far better
Than ever I’ve loved Him before;
I’m learning the blessed secret
Of trusting Him more and more.

Refrain:
I love Him each day far better
Than ever I’ve loved Him before;
I’m learning the blessed secret
Of trusting Him more and more.

2 My joy is a nameless glory,
The star of my Hope brighter grows;
The soul of my life is Jesus,
The Conq’ror of all my foes. [Refrain]

3 I hold with Him sweet communion,
And more of His beauty I see;
The windows of Heaven open,
Revealing His face to me. [Refrain]
