1 For me the blessed Savior came,
His great salvation to proclaim;
Oh, glory to His precious name!
It satisfies my soul.

Refrain:
It satisfies my soul,
It satisfies my soul;
This wonderful salvation,
How it satisfies my soul!

2 Salvation is unmeasured grace,
It fits us for the Christian race,
Unveils the Father’s smiling face,
It satisfies my soul. [Refrain]

3 Salvation brings supreme delight,
It changes darkness into light,
And makes the Christian pathway bright,
It satisfies my soul. [Refrain]

4 Salvation brings abiding peace,
Its shining glories e’er increase;
Its flowing rivers never cease,
It satisfies my soul. [Refrain]

5 Salvation makes us happy here,
Surpassing all the earth holds dear,
And fills the drooping heart with cheer,
It satisfies my soul. [Refrain]

6 Salvation richer far than gold,
Than glitt’ring gems that turn to mold;
Its wealth no language e’er has told,
It satisfies my soul. [Refrain]
