The angels in the Heavens have signed my name
I'm not the same. My heart has been changed.
The angels in the Heavens have signed my name.
I am not the same. My heart has been changed.
The angels in Heaven, they have signed my name
And I'm glad, I'm glad that the Lord is my guide
Though my enemies try to knock me down I promised the
Lord I'd let nothing turn me around.

Lord I'm willing to follow you.
Lord I'll do what You want me to do.
You gave me a light and I mean to let it shine.
Because in that great gettin-up morning I don't wanna be left behind.

Just left our Wednesday Night Bible Study. Our pastor taught/thought, "Lord open our eyes...to faith, boldness and victory! It was food on the table! And I did eat! Ps. 37 :25, Kings 6:11 through 20.kv 20 and II Chronicles 14; 9 through 13 k.v. 11
While coming home this song was in my spirit.
I can't hold a key, but Brother Barnes took me there! Glory to my God!
God knew the Coronavirus, Swine Flu, Measles, Chicken Pox, Rubella before mankind. THERE IS NO.THING GOD CAN'T DEFEAT, IT IS ONLY "WILL HE?"!!!
MANKIND, HAS GOT TO GET SATUSFIED, FALL IN LOVE, RESPECT GOD! THE ONE LORD, ONE FAITH AND ONE BAPTISM IN JESUS NAME!
LET'S TURN GOD'S WRATH TO FORGIVING!

Chorus
I am so satisfied.
I am so satisfied with my Savior.
He means more to me than anything, anything that this world
could ever offer.
I am so satisfied.
I am so satisfied with my Savior
He means more to me than anything,
anything that this world could ever offer me.
Verse I
I'm satisfied with the way that He cares for me.
And how He makes a way when there seems to be no hope for me
And yes I'm satisfied with the joy He placed within my soul
And how He helps me to bear my heavy load.
Verse II
He's so wonderful. He's so merciful.
He looks out for me even though I'm not all that I should be
And what makes Him so very special is the fact that He gave
His very life for me.
What more, what more, what more can I say?
