I'll Be Satisfied by Charles Albert Tindley — Lyrics
1. What if all the world was given unto me,
In the sight of men, how exalted would I be?
If I have not Jesus when I come to die,
All the world can never satisfy.

About I'll Be Satisfied
This stirring anthem is perfect for a congregational setting or a special occasion. Charles Albert Tindley's powerful SATB arrangement of I'll Be Satisfied offers a profound message of spiritual contentment. The lyrics articulate that earthly possessions and pleasures pale in comparison to the fulfillment found in faith. The text, sung in English, draws a stark contrast between material wealth and the enduring satisfaction derived from a spiritual connection, particularly through Jesus Christ. The chorus powerfully declares that even without worldly treasures or common joys, the presence of Jesus is enough to bring complete satisfaction.
