Drinking from the Saucer
I've never made a fortune,
And I'll never make one now.
But it really doesn't matter,
Cause I'm happy anyhow.
As I go along my journey,
I'm reaping better than I've sown.
I'm drinking from the saucer,
'Cause my cup has overflowed.
I don't have a lot of riches,
And sometimes the goings rough.
But while I've friends to love,
I think I'm rich enough.
I'll just thank God for blessings
That His mercy has bestowed.
I'm drinking from the 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.
May I never be too busy to help bear another's load.
Then I'll be drinking from the saucer,
'Cause my cup has overflowed.
