Original text and translations

English text 1. I am thinking of the danger Of the life I used to live, When my spirit was a stranger To the peace Christ came to give: How I tried to make excuses For my sinful life and ways, And the many sad abuses – Wasting life and useful days. Chorus I am saved and satisfied, I am saved and satisfied, Since I gave my life to Jesus In His presence to abide, I am saved and satisfied.

2. Long I fought against the evil Which I found did lurk within; This possession of the devil Kept me always prone to sin; When I read the words of Jesus And the teachings of St. Paul, There I found a promised freedom From the guilt of Adam’s fall. 3. Promises of full salvation From all sin and sinning too, Making me a new creation Saved completely through and through: That the grace of God would cleanse me From the state of inbred sin, And each moment guide and keep me Safe without and pure within.

4. Then I sought and found this blessing Through the blood of Christ my Lord, I am free from condemnation, Living daily in His word; Happy in the promise given, I am shouting on the way To my Father’s house in heaven And the land of endless day. 5. Now I walk upon the highway Where the saints of old have trod, I am walking with my Savior In the way that leads to God; Earthly joys I do not covet, Nor its pleasures do I crave; In the world but am not of it, Hallelujah, I am saved.
