“He satisfieth the longing soul.”
“My people shall be satisfied”:
’Tis God who speaks the word;
My goodness and My mercies will
Be with them, said the Lord.
For riches cannot satisfy,
Nor gold nor silver can;
’Tis only Jesus satisfies
And fills the heart of man.
He satisfies completely now
Each moment of the day;
His love can fill your empty soul
And care for you alway.
Oh, yes! my Saviour satisfies,
As nothing else can do;
The chiefest of ten thousand, He
Can satisfy you too.
The altogether lovely One—
Oh, won’t you taste and see?
For Jesus always satisfies;
He satisfieth me!
