Drinking from a Saucer
I've never made a fortune
And its probably too late now.
But I don't worry about that much.
I m happy anyhow.
As I go along life's journey
I'm reaping better than I sowed.
I m drinkinq from my saucer
Cause my cup has overflowed.
Ain't got a lot of riches,
Sometimes the goings rough.
But I got a kid that loves me.
That makes me rich enough.
I just thank Him for His blessings,
And the mercy He has bestowed.
I'm drinking from my saucer
Cause my cup has overflowed.
And I remember times when things went wrong
And my faith got a little thin.
But then all at once the dark clouds broke
And the old sun broke through again
So Lord, help me not to gripe
About the tough rows I have hoed.
I 'm drinking from my saucer
Cause my cup has overflowed.
And if God gives me the strength and courage
When the way gets steep and rough.
I won't ask for other blessings.
I'm already blessed enough.
And may I never be too busy
To help another bear his load.
Then I'll keep drinking from my saucer
Cause my cup has overflowed.
