16. I Love Him More and More

1 Each day I follow Christ my Lord
T’ward that eternal shore,
O be His blessed name adored,
I love Him more and more.
My cup of blessings ne’er is low,
He fills it o’er and o’er,
And while I know He loves me so,
I love Him more and more.

Refrain:
I love the Lord my King,
I love Him more and more,
The more I know of Him,
I love Him more,
Yes, more and more,
I love the Lord my King,
I love Him more and more,
The more I know of Him,
I love Him more and more.

2 I sought Him and He took me in
But loved me long before,
And since He pardoned all my sin,
I love Him more and more.
I find His mercies here abound,
His grace a boundless store,
So much of glory shines around,
I love Him more and more. [Refrain]

3 And so I’ll sing along the way,
To that celestial land,
As Jesus guides me day by day,
And holds me by His hand.
And when my King I meet and see,
On that eternal shore,
I’ll sing through all eternity,
“I love Him more and more.” [Refrain]
