What I've Found in Jesus

Otto Bolds (1904) • English

Primary Scripture: Psalm 84:11

Verse 1

In the arms of my dear Savior I am resting every day, And His smiles like sunbeams Fall upon my face; I am standing on His promise, Where I shall forever stay, And my heart is overflowing With His grace.

Chorus

I am filled with grace and glory, And in Jesus I abide; I will tell the wondrous story, Since my soul is satisfied.

Verse 2

Once I roamed in sinful darkness, Over mountain, hill and plain, Seeking everywhere For rest and finding none; Yes, my search for satisfaction While in sin was all in vain, But I’ve fund it in God’s Well beloved Son.

Chorus

I am filled with grace and glory, And in Jesus I abide; I will tell the wondrous story, Since my soul is satisfied.

Verse 3

Long in sin I sought for pleasure, Something that would satisfy, Something that would quench The thirsting of my soul; But I found that sin’s dominion, Naught I needed could supply, Then I turned to Jesus, And He made me whole.

Chorus

I am filled with grace and glory, And in Jesus I abide; I will tell the wondrous story, Since my soul is satisfied.

Verse 4

I am dwelling in that kingdom, Where the day is always bright, And the sparkling waters Of life’s river gleam, Where the gloomy shades of darkness Are dispelled by Heaven’s light; And I’m ever drinking Of that living stream.

Chorus

I am filled with grace and glory, And in Jesus I abide; I will tell the wondrous story, Since my soul is satisfied.
