When I have finished my pilgrimage here,
When shall have vanquished temptation and fear,
As in the arms of His love I abide,
I shall be satisfied.

Refrain

I shall be satisfied,
I shall be satisfied,
I shall be satisfied;
Sheltered above by His infinite love,
I shall be satisfied.

When I am troubled by grief and despair,
Grace never failing awaits me up there;
Willing to trust Him whatever betide,
I shall be satisfied.

Refrain

When I have traveled the way with my Lord,
Counting the mileposts by faith in His Word,
Living and dying with Him by my side,
I shall be satisfied.

Refrain
