The days of the years of my pilgrimage.
Genesis 47:9
Words: Alfred H. Ackley, 1909.
Music: Bentley D. Ackley (🔊 pdf nwc).
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,
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.
