Lyrics
I've got that old time religion
Got that old time religion
That is why I'm satisfied
You ask me if I'm happy
If I have sweet peace within
If I'm worried about tomorrow
When I reach my journey's end
I'm satisfied with my Jesus
When He knocks, I'll let Him in
He'll go with me through the valley
All I know, He is my friend
Satisfied (satisfied), satisfied (satisfied)
No troubles can ever get me down
For when my eyes are closed in death
With my Jesus, I'll be at rest
Satisfied (satisfied), I'm satisfied
I've got that old time religion
Got that old time religion
That is why I'm satisfied
Now, if my friends they all forsake me
And they turn me from their door
If they sow no seeds of kindness
Making thorns in my path grow
Well, it won't matter over yonder
When I reach the other side
Well, I'm gonna sit down by my Jesus
Satisfied, satisfied
Satisfied (satisfied), satisfied (satisfied)
No troubles can ever get me down
For when my eyes are closed in death
With my Jesus, I'll be at rest
Then you'll know (yes, then they'll know)
I'm satisfied
I've got that old time religion
Got that old time religion
That is why (that is why) I'm satisfied
