I never made a fortune and it's probably too late now. But it don't matter much, I'm happy anyhow. As I go along life's journey, I'm reaping better than I sowed, I'm drinking from a saucer--cause my cup is overflowed.
I ain't got a lot of riches and sometimes the going gets tough, But I've got friends and kids that love me--and that makes me rich enough. I just thank God for the mercies and blessings He's bestowed, I'm drinking from a saucer--cause my cup is overflowed.
There were times when things went wrong and my faith got a little thin, But, then all at once the dark cloud broke and the sun peeked thru again. So, Lord, help me not to complain about the rough rows I've hoed, I'm drinking from a saucer--cause my cup is overflowed.
If God gives me strength and couorage when my way grows steep and rough, I'll not ask for other blessings--I've already been blessed enough. And may I never be too busy to help others bear their load, So I'll keep drinking from a saucer--cause my cup is overflowed.
