Drinking from My Saucer

I've never made a fortune

It's probably too late now

Oh but I don't worry about that much

'Cause I'm happy anyhow

As I go along life's journey

I'm reaping better than I sow

I'm drinking from my saucer

'Cause my cup has overflowed

A'int got a lot of riches

And sometimes the going's rough

But I've got a friend in Jesus

And that makes me rich enough

I thank God for all His blessings

And the mercy He's bestowed

I'm drinking from my saucer

'Cause my cup has overflowed

O sure, I've been through some storms

And yes, I'm sure there were times when

My Faith must have got a little thin

But you know what it seemed like?

One day, all at once, those dark clouds broke

And that old sun she started shining again

So Lord, help me not to grumble and complain

About the tough rows that I've hoed

I'm drinking from my saucer

"Cause my cup has overflowed

If i should go on living

When the way grows 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!"
