If you ask me if i'm happy
For I have peace within
If I'm worried about tomorrow
When I reach my journey's end
I'm satisfied with my Jesus
When he knocks I let him in
He'll go with me through the valley
For I know he is my friend
Chorus:
Satisfied, Satisfied
No trouble can ever get me down
When my eyes shall close in death
With my Jesus I'll be at rest
Then you'll know I'm satisfied
When my friends all forsake me
When they turn me from their door
If they sow no seedsof kindness
Make the thorns in my path grow
It won't matter over yonder
When I reach the other side
I'm gonna sit down with my Jesus
And then you'll know I'm satisfied
Repeat Chorus
When my eyes shall close in death
With my Jesus I'll be at rest
Then you'll know I'm satisfied
