The Longer I Serve Him

By William J. Gaither

(Thank you to Debbie Weithers and Lisa Jardine for presenting this piece at the 50th Anniversary, May 30, 2020 event.)

Since I started for the kingdom,

Since my live He controls;

Since I gave my heart to Jesus,

The longer I serve Him, the sweeter He grows.

Chorus:

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.

(Each day is like Heaven, my heart overflow.

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.
