Drinking From The Saucer

I’ve never made a fortune,

And I’ll never make one now.

It really doesn’t matter

Because I’m happy anyhow.

As I go along my journey,

I’m reaping better than I’ve sowed.

I’m drinking from the saucer

‘cause my cup has overflowed.

I don’t have a lot of riches,

And sometimes the going’s tough,

But with kin and friends to love me

I think I’m rich enough.

I thank God for the blessings

That His mercy has bestowed.

I’m drinking from the saucer,

‘cause my cup has overflowed.

He gives me strength and courage

When the way grows steep and rough.

I’ll not ask for other blessings

For I’m already blessed enough.

May we never be too busy

To help bear another load.

Then we’ll all be drinking from the saucer

When our cups have overflowed.
