Sweeter as the Years Roll By Songtext
von Blind Willie Johnson

Sweeter as the years go by
Sweeter as the years go by
Richer, fuller, deeper, Jesus' love is sweeter
Sweeter as the years go

Lord its sweeter as the years go by
Sweeter as the years go by
Richer, fuller, deeper, Jesus' love is sweeter
Sweeter as the years go

Jesus' love that sought me, I was lost in sin
wondrous grace that brought me to The fold again
Deeper depths of mercy, deeper than the sea
Higher than the heavens, things shall ever be

Sweeter as the years go by
Sweeter as the years go by
Richer, fuller, deeper, Jesus' love is sweeter
Sweeter as the years go by


Lord its sweeter as the years go by
Sweeter as the years go by
Richer, fuller, deeper, Jesus' love is sweeter
Sweeter as the years go by

Trod in old Judea life's pathway long ago
People thronged about Him, His saving grace to know
Healed the brokenhearted, caused the blind to see
And still His great heart yearneth in love for even me

Sweeter as the years go by
Sweeter as the years go by
Richer, fuller, deeper, Jesus' love is sweeter
Sweeter as the years go by

Lord its sweeter as the years go by
Sweeter as the years go by
Richer, fuller, deeper, Jesus' love is sweeter
Sweeter as the years go by

Well its sweeter as the years go by
Sweeter as the years go by
Richer, fuller, deeper, Jesus' love is sweeter
Sweeter as the years go by
