Tribute Quartet - Sweeter As The Days Go By Lyrics
Lyrics
The more I trust Him, the more I love Him
Nothing good for me He'll deny
The longer I know Him, the better I can show Him
I couldn't stop now if I tried
It gets sweeter as the days go by
It gets sweeter as the moments fly
His love is richer, deeper, fuller, sweeter
Sweeter, sweeter, sweeter as the days go by
Oh, the moment He saved my His good grace He gave me
He place His love down deep in my heart
There's great joy in knowing with Him I am going
And never more from Him to depart
It gets sweeter as the days go by
It gets sweeter as the moments fly
His love is richer, deeper, fuller, sweeter
Sweeter, sweeter, sweeter as the days go by
It gets sweeter as the days go by
It gets sweeter as the moments fly
His love is richer, deeper, fuller, sweeter
Sweeter, sweeter, sweeter as the days go by
Sweeter, sweeter, sweeter as the days go by

Meaning & Inspiration
"Sweeter As The Days Go By," released by Tribute Quartet on February 7, 2017, is a profound exploration of an ever-deepening relationship with God. The song's core message revolves around the transformative power of trust and the growing appreciation for divine love that matures and intensifies over time. It beautifully articulates a personal journey where faith isn't static but a dynamic, evolving experience. As the lyrics suggest, the more one truly relies on God, the more love blossoms, and the more one understands Him, the better they can express that understanding. This echoes the sentiment found in Philippians 1:9, which speaks of a love that abounds more and more in knowledge and discernment. The song powerfully conveys that this growing intimacy with the divine is a force that cannot be stopped, suggesting a divinely orchestrated progress in our spiritual lives, a testament to God's faithfulness.
The song’s narrative unfolds with a powerful testament to salvation, recounting the moment of receiving God’s grace and the deep-seated joy that follows. This experience is described as placing love deep within the heart, a profound internal transformation. The assurance of being on a path with God, with no intention of ever departing from Him, is a central theme. This resonates deeply with promises of God's unending presence and guidance, as articulated in Deuteronomy 31:6, which encourages believers to be strong and courageous, for the Lord their God goes with them. The repeated declaration that "It gets sweeter as the days go by" is not merely a lyrical refrain but a theological statement about the nature of God’s love. It’s presented as something that becomes richer, deeper, and fuller with each passing moment, a continuous unfolding of divine goodness. This ongoing sweetness is a reflection of God’s inexhaustible mercies, which are new every morning, as lamented in Lamentations 3:23. The song effectively captures the essence of a spiritual life that, far from becoming mundane, gains increasing beauty and profound satisfaction through consistent engagement with God. It's an inspiring reminder that the journey of faith is one of continuous revelation and ever-increasing joy.
