Lyrics
HE WILL NEVER DISAPPOINT YOU!
Jesus is far more to me
Than in all my glowing day-dreams I
Had fancied He could be
And the more I get to know Him, so
The more I find Him true
And the more I long that others should
Be led to know Him too.
He will never disappoint you!
He has saved my soul from sin
All the guilt and all the anguish, which
Oppressed my heart within,
He had banished by His presence, and
His blessed kiss of peace
Has assured my heart for ever that His
love will never cease.
He will never disappoint you!
He is coming by and by
In my heart I have the witness that His
Coming draweth nigh
All the scoffers may despise me, and no
Change around may see
But He tells me He is coming, and
That`s quite enough for me.
He will never disappoint you!
He is all In all to me-
Blessed Saviour, Sanctifier; the
unchanging Christ is He!
He has won my heart`s affections, and
He meets my every need;
He will never disappoint you, for He
Satisfies Indeed.

Meaning & Inspiration
The hymn presents confidence in Christ through a personal witness that grows stronger as the singer comes to know him. Its verses move from expectation to experience: imagined ideas about Jesus give way to trust in his truth, forgiveness, peace, and constant care. The repeated assurance that he does not disappoint gives the song a steady, consoling center. Rather than treating faith as an escape from trouble, the text describes Christ as present within guilt, anguish, uncertainty, and opposition.
The closing verses widen that confidence toward Christ’s promised return and his unchanging character. Language about a Savior and Sanctifier gathers salvation, holiness, and daily provision into one confession. Hebrews 13:8 closely supports the description of Christ as unchanging, while Romans 8:38–39 reflects the claim that divine love will not cease. The hymn therefore joins testimony with invitation, expressing settled confidence that Christ remains faithful, meets spiritual need, and gives peace that endures.
