This setting of Mary Baker Eddy's hymn text draws upon the American folk music influences of her day. The accompaniment changes with the different thoughts of the poem, with a wake-up section and peaceful conclusion. Watchfire is thrilled to make Mr. Schliapin's compositions once again available.

Lyrics

Satisfied

Words: Mary Baker Eddy
Composer: Nicholas P. Schliapin

It matters not what be thy lot,
So Love doth guide;
For storm or shine, pure peace is thine,
Whate’er betide.

And of these stones, or tyrants’ thrones,
God able is
To raise up seed–in thought and deed–
To faithful His.

Aye, darkling sense, arise, go hence!
Our God is good.
False fears are foes–truth tatters those,
When understood.

Love looseth thee, and lifteth me,
Ayont hate’s thrall:
There Life is light, and wisdom might,
And God is All.

The centuries break, the earthbound wake,
God’s glorified!
Who doth His will–His likeness still–
Is satisfied.
