Drinking From My Saucer

Drinking From My Saucer
I've never made
a fortune and it's
probably too late now.
But I don't worry
about that much,
I'm happy anyhow.



And as I go
along life's way,
I'm reaping better
than I sowed.
I'm drinking from my saucer,
'Cause my cup has overflowed.



I don't have
a lot of riches,
and sometimes the going's tough.
But I've got loved
ones around me,
and that makes me
rich enough.



I thank God for his blessings,
and the merciles
He's bestowed.
I'm drinking from my saucer,
'cause my cup has overflowed.



I remember times
when things went wrong,
My faith wore somewhat thin.
But all at once
the dark clouds broke,
and the sun peeped
through again.



So God, help me not
to gripe about
the tough rows
that I've hoed.
I'm drinking from my saucer,
'Cause my cup has overflowed.



If God gives me
strength and courage,
when the way grows
steep and rough.
I'll not ask for
other blessings,
I'm already blessed enough.



And may I never
be too busy,
to help others
bear their loads.
Then I'll keep
drinking from my saucer,
'Cause my cup has overflowed.
