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 sow
I'm
drinking from my saucer
'Cause
my cup has overflowed.
Haven't
got a lot of riches
and
sometimes the going's tough
But
I've got loving ones around me
and
that makes me rich enough
I
thank God for his blessings
and
the mercies He's bestowed
I'm
drinking from my saucer
'cause
my cup has overflowed
Remember
times when things
went
wrong
My
faith wore somewhat thin
But
all at once the dark clouds
broke
and
sun peeped through again
So
Lord, 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.
