Satisfied with Jesus

Satisfied with Jesus is my soul today;
I am satisfied, fully satisfied.
I have been redeemed, and now my soul can say,
“I am fully satisfied.”

Refrain

My soul is full of joy, and peace,
To praise my God I cannot cease.
He heard me when to Him I cried,
And now my soul is satisfied.

Once I walked in darkness, under sin’s control;
Now I’m satisfied, fully satisfied.
Since the light from Heaven streams into my soul,
“I am fully satisfied.”

Refrain

Satisfied with Jesus, now my soul can sing,
“I am satisfied, fully satisfied.”
Happy in the love of Christ my Lord and King,
“I am fully satisfied.”

Refrain

Satisfied with Jesus, oh, the peace, how sweet!
I am satisfied, fully satisfied.
Trusting in the promise till His face I greet;
“I am fully satisfied.”

Refrain

This hymn with its distinctive refrain appears in early 20th-century collections under the name Clara Teare (sometimes listed as Mrs. Clara Teare). A few later compilations have attributed it simply as 'Traditional' or left it anonymous, but the original printings and most hymnological indexes credit Clara Teare.
