I've got that old time religion
Got that old time religion
That is why I'm satisfiedWell, you may ask me if I'm happy
If I have sweet peace within
If I'm worried about tomorrow
When I reach my journey's endWell, I'm satisfied with my Jesus
And when He knocks I'm gonna let Him in
And He'll go with me through the valley
For I know He is my friendSatisfied, satisfied
No trouble can ever get me down
When my eyes are closed in death
With my Jesus I'll be at rest
Then you'll know I'm satisfiedI've got that old time religion
Got that old time religion
That is why I'm satisfiedIf my friends they all forsake me
And they turn me from their door
If they sow no seeds of kindness
Make the thorns in my path growWell, it won't matter over yonder
When I reach that other side
Well, I'm gonna sit down with my Jesus
Satisfied, I'm satisfiedSatisfied, satisfied
No trouble can ever get me down
When my eyes are closed in death
With my Jesus I'll be at rest
Then you'll know I'm satisfiedSatisfied, satisfied
No troubles can ever get me down
When my eyes are closed in death
With my Jesus I'll be at rest
Then you'll know I'm satisfiedI've got that old time religion
Got that old time religion
That is why I'm satisfied
