Music and words by William J. Gaither
Since I started for the kingdom,
Since my life He controls,
Since I gave my heart to Jesus;
The longer I serve Him, the sweeter He grows.
The longer I serve Him, the sweeter He grows;
The more that I love Him, more love He bestows.
Each day is like heaven, my heart overflows;
The longer I serve Him, the sweeter He grows.
Every need He is supplying,
Plenteous grace He bestows;
Every day my way gets brighter,
The longer I serve Him, the sweeter He grows.
