The hunger and thirst within one's soul Can only be quenched as his spirit's made whole The emptiness within man's heart, God alone can fill; And the anxiety and restlessness, only He can still No earthly treasure can answer the desperate cry Nor can any worldly pleasure ever satisfy; But a hungry seeking soul kneeling to God in prayer Always finds satisfaction and contentment there When I was alone in a parlor looking empty and bare Depressed at heart, deep in dark despair You came to my rescue just to satisfy the need in me More than nuggets of gold and now I will never give up my bliss Chorus: Ooo, you give me satisfaction When I'm broken-down, abandoned and forsaken Ooo, you set my feet on high places That I've never been before When night creatures tear my life up into pieces inside And there is no hope for a better life Ooo, you make me escape from a masquerade So please satisfy the need in me Cause you've given me happiness, multiplying bliss Good news, great joy and most of all, so much satisfaction Looking to Jesus, responding to His call Confessing sin, surrendering all - The search is ended, there's sweet release The heart overflows with joy and peace Father, thank You for filling the void with blessings from above And for satisfying our hunger and thirst With Your wondrous grace and love When I was in an empty nest playing solitaire Angels of mercy would send me home to meet my family Who would come to my rescue Just to satisfy the need in me More than nuggets of gold and now I will never give up on love Repeat Chorus When I was walking down the street, feeling like a hungry child Longing and yearning for you To satisfy my soul with a rich feast You helped make it home to have spaghetti for supper With the rest of my family in the house of love Repeat Chorus
