Day by day in love and fa­vor
With my Sav­ior I would grow;
Day by day of His com­pas­sion
More and more I long to know.

Refrain

Day by day to my de­liv­er­er,
Him who died that I might live;
For His ten­der, lov­ing kind­ness
All the glo­ry I would give.

Day by day to Him who saves me
I would come by faith and pray­er;
Nearer to His throne ap­proach­ing,
I would leave my bur­den there.

Refrain

Day by day with Him who leads me
I would hold com­mun­ion sweet;
Then, with all the ran­somed ar­my,
Bow ad­or­ing at his feet.
