To Jesus every day we find our hearts are closer drawn;
He's fairer than the sons of men and fresher than the morn;
He's all that we can say of Him in fairest words and more,
And every day He's dearer than He was the day before.
He's fairer than the sons of men and fresher than the morn;
He's all that we can say of Him in fairest words and more,
And every day He's dearer than He was the day before.
The half cannot be fancied of such a treasure-store,
And every day He's dearer than He ever was before!
And every day He's dearer than He ever was before!

His glory broke upon us when we saw Him in the church,
For here are all His riches, here we've given up our search;
'Tis here He satisfies our longing spirits o'er and o'er,
And every day He's dearer than He was the day before.
For here are all His riches, here we've given up our search;
'Tis here He satisfies our longing spirits o'er and o'er,
And every day He's dearer than He was the day before.

Now He's the living Spirit who within our spirit dwells,
And by His sweet anointing, how His life within us swells!
As with the saints we're meeting, full released our spirits soar,
For now our Lord is dearer than He ever was before.
And by His sweet anointing, how His life within us swells!
As with the saints we're meeting, full released our spirits soar,
For now our Lord is dearer than He ever was before.

The Lord has made us one with Him for His recovery:
The riches of this Christ, the church His fullness, men must see.
Yes, all we have and all we are, we every day outpour
For His tremendous purpose, ever dearer than before.

For the Drawing
of All Men to Christ
In John 12:32 the Lord Jesus said, “I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to Myself. ” This indicates that Christ’s all-inclusive death was for the drawing of all men to Himself.
All those who are drawn to Him eventually become the fruits produced by His death and resurrection. On the one hand, we are those who have been drawn to the Lord. On the other hand, we are grains produced by the death and resurrection of Christ. Praise the Lord that we are the grains and that we are the drawn ones! Praise the Lord that the church life has been multiplied! In fact, this multiplication is still taking place, for many are still being drawn to Christ.

Although I have been saved almost 55 years I fully realize that we have not seen or heard half of the great love of Christ. The church is being built up in this love! To me every day He is dearer than He was yesterday!

Fancied means imagined. It means we can't even imagine half of the treasure-store of Christ. For the Lord's riches are boundless.
