Jesus Satisfies – Hymn Lyric
When Jesus no longer stands preciously nigh,
When sorrows like sea billows roll;
I look to the Rock that is higher than I,
And peace, wondrous peace floods my soul.
Jesus satisfies, Jesus satisfies;
Clouds at His presence roll away;
Jesus satisfies, Jesus satisfies;
His glory turns my darkness into day.
The sun may be shining on fields bright and gay,
With springtime perfumes in the breeze;
Yet, life without Jesus is winter in May,
Without Him no prospect can please.
If living like Paul all victorious and free,
Tho’ beaten while multitudes stare;
Tho’ put behind bars ‘twould be heaven to me,
For Jesus will dwell with me there.
If faithful in standing for what I believe
Brings scoffing and fire, I can dare
To laugh in the furnace where I am to burn,
For Jesus will dwell with me there.

Jesus Satisfies – Finding Peace and Joy in Any Circumstance
Oh, how wonderful it is to know that no matter what challenges we may face, Jesus is always there to bring us peace and satisfaction. Just like in the hymn, when Jesus feels far away and sorrows come rushing in like sea billows, we can always turn to the Rock that is higher than us. In times of uncertainty and fear, Jesus is the one who can flood our souls with wondrous peace.
When we feel like we’re in the midst of a storm, with dark clouds looming overhead, we can trust that Jesus will make those clouds roll away. His presence alone is enough to turn our darkest days into days filled with light and hope. Just like the sun shining on a beautiful spring day, Jesus brings warmth and joy to our lives, even in the midst of difficult seasons.
Even when life may seem perfect on the outside, without Jesus at the center, it can feel like winter in May. No matter how bright and cheerful our surroundings may be, true satisfaction and fulfillment can only come from knowing and walking with Jesus. He is the one who makes every moment meaningful and every experience rich with purpose.
Just like the apostle Paul, who faced incredible challenges and hardships for his faith, we too can find victory and freedom in Jesus. Even if we are mocked, ridiculed, or even persecuted for what we believe, we can stand firm knowing that Jesus is right there with us. In the face of adversity, Jesus gives us the strength to endure and the courage to keep moving forward.
And if we ever find ourselves in the midst of a fiery trial, like being thrown into a furnace, we can laugh in the face of danger knowing that Jesus is right there with us. His presence brings comfort, peace, and a sense of joy that can’t be shaken by our circumstances. No matter where we are or what we may face, Jesus satisfies our deepest longings and fills our hearts with His love.
So, let us hold on to the truth that Jesus satisfies. Let us turn to Him in times of need, in times of joy, and in times of struggle. With Jesus by our side, we can face anything that comes our way knowing that His love and grace will carry us through. Jesus satisfies our souls like nothing else can, and in His presence, we find true peace and lasting joy.
