The New Praiseworthy ‎#34

34. Nothing Satisfies but Jesus

1 Nothing satisfies but Jesus,
Bread of life to mortals giv'n;
May His presence now refresh us
Like the morning dew from heav'n!

Chorus:
Give me Jesus (Give me Jesus,)
give me Jesus, (give me Jesus,)
Take the world, but give me Jesus,
To satisfy with ev'ry blessing,
His love and peace my soul possessing;
To all beside, my heart replies:
There's naught but Jesus satisfies!

2 Since I heard the voice of Jesus,
Since mine eyes behold the King,
All my love, my heart's affection,
All I have, to Him I bring. [Chorus]

3 With His joy my heart is thrilling,
All my hope in Him I see;
Doubt, and gloom, and fear dispelling,
Christ is All in all to me. [Chorus]
