Refrain:
Ev'ryday with Jesus,
Sweeter than the day before;
Ev'ryday with Jesus
I love Him more and more;
Jesus saves and keeps me,
He's the one that I adore;
Ev'ryday is sweeter,
Sweeter than the day before.
Sweeter than the day before.

1 Ev'ry day He grows a little dearer,
Sweeter than the day before;
Ev'ry day He gets a little nearer,
Sweeter than the day before. [Refrain]

2 Ev'ry day this old load gets lighter,
Sweeter than the day before;
Ev'ry day my pathway gets brighter,
Sweeter than the day before. [Refrain]

3 Ev'ry day He hears my fervent pleas,
Sweeter than the day before;
Ev'ry day He gives my poor heart ease,
Sweeter than the day before. [Refrain]

4 Ev'ry day He guides me all along,
Sweeter than the day before;
Ev'ry day He shields me from all harm,
Sweeter than the day before. [Refrain]

In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries. Go to person page >
