when I was lost in sin;
Of wondrous grace that brought me
back to His fold again;

Of heights and depths of mercy,
far deeper than the sea,
And higher than the heavens,
my theme shall ever be.

Hymn 185 -3

1*	主的愛越久越深， 主的愛越久越深； 何等豐盛深厚，何等廣大長久， 主的愛越久越深。

sweeter as the years go by, Richer,
fuller,deeper, Jesus’ love is sweeter,
Sweeter as the years go by.

2a	我主生在猶太境， 走過人生旅程； 群眾來圍繞親近， 為要得著救恩。

He trod in old Judea life’s
pathway long ago;
The people thronged about Him,
His saving grace to know;

Hymn 185 -5

2b	傷心的人得撫慰， 瞎眼的能看見； 今天主偉大愛心， 仍向我們彰顯。

and caused the blind to see;
And still His great heart yearneth
in love for even me.

sweeter as the years go by, Richer,
fuller,deeper, Jesus’ love is sweeter,
Sweeter as the years go by.

Hymn 185 -7

3a	主有奇妙的慈愛， 為我忍受虧損； 甘願被釘十字架， 毫無懷恨埋怨。

’Twas wondrous love which
led Him for us to suffer loss,
To bear without a murmur
the anguish of the cross;

Hymn 185 -8

3b	但願蒙救贖聖徒， 一同歌頌歡呼； 直到天地都響應， 讚美耶穌聖名。

With saints redeemed in glory,
let us our voices raise,
Till Heav’n and earth re-echo
with our Redeemer’s praise.

Sweeter as the years go by,
sweeter as the years go by, Richer,
fuller,deeper, Jesus’ love is sweeter,
Sweeter as the years go by.
