The Modern Hymnal ‎#376

376. More Than Satisfied

1 When my heart is overburdened with a heavy load of care,
And the day seems crowded full of many trials, hard to bear;
Then, in love, He speaks to me,
From the cross of Calvary,
And my happy soul is more than satisfied.

Refrain:
I am more than satisfied with Jesus,
Ev’ry longing of my heart He knows,
And gives me grace for ev’ry day,
Walks beside me in the way,
And he tempers ev’ry wind that blows.

2 Now I carry all to Jesus, and I tell Him ev’rything,
For I know He understands, and He alone can comfort bring;
Gives me strength for ev’ry hour,
I can feel His keeping pow’r,
And my happy soul is more than satisfied. [Refrain]

3 He is near me ev’ry day in blessed fellowship so sweet,
Ev’ry trial, ev’ry burden now I lay at Jesus’ feet;
And He pours into my heart
Joys that never will depart,
And my happy soul is more than satisfied. [Refrain]
