Lyrics

When all my tri­als and cares are o’er,
When I shall stand on the gold­en shore,
If I may hold my Sav­ior’s hand,
I’ll be sa­tis­fied then.
I’ll be sa­tis­fied then,
I’ll be sa­tis­fied then,
If I may hold my Sav­ior’s hand,
I’ll be sa­tis­fied then.

When I my loved ones there shall meet,
And with them kneel at Je­sus’ feet,
If I may rest by the great white throne,
I’ll be sa­tis­fied then.
I’ll be sa­tis­fied then,
I’ll be sa­tis­fied then,
If I may rest by the great white throne,
I’ll be sa­tis­fied then.

When I shall reach that home of rest,
To dwell with all the saved and blest,
If I may drink at the fount of life,
I’ll be sa­tis­fied then.
I’ll be sa­tis­fied then,
I’ll be sa­tis­fied then,
If I may drink at the fount of life
I’ll be sa­tis­fied then.
