My soul shall be satisfied.
Psalm 63:5
Words: Addie Pannell, 1922. Written especially for C. C. Helms.
Music: Regina Emmett S. Dean (🔊 pdf nwc).
If you know where to get a good photo of Pannell (head & shoulders, at least 200×300 pixels), or a better one of Dean,
I know not when the time shall be
For God to send the call for me;
But this I know, whate’er betide,
My soul shall then be satisfied.
Refrain
Be satisfied, when I behold
A shining crown and harp of gold;
When I shall rest by Jesus’ side,
My soul shall then be satisfied.
When I awake in that bright home,
Behold the beauties now unknown,
Where Satan shall no more deride,
My soul shall then be satisfied.
Refrain
Oh, what rejoicing there will be,
When we the King of Glory see!
And when I rest by Jesus’ side,
My soul shall then be satisfied.
