Satisfied

(Martha Carson)



I've got that old time religion, got that old time religion

At his side I'm satisfied.



You ask me if I'm happy, if I have peace within

If I'm worried 'bout tomorrow when I reach my journey's end

Well, 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.



Satisfied, satisfied, no troubles can ever get me down

For when my eyes are closed in death with my Jesus I'll be at rest

Then you'll know I'm satisfied

I've got that old time religion, got that old time religion

At his side I'm satisfied.



If my friends they all forsake me and they turn me from their door

If they sow no seeds of kindness make the thorns in my path grow

Oh, it don't matter over yonder when I reach that other side

For I'm gonna sit down by my Jesus satisfied, I'm satisfied.



Satisfied, satisfied, no troubles can ever get me down

For when my eyes are closed in death with my Jesus I'll be at rest

Then you'll know I'm satisfied

I've got that old time religion, got that old time religion

At his side I'm satisfied...
