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 sowed
I'm drinking from the saucer cause my cup has overflowed.

I don't have a lot of riches and sometimes the goings tough
but I've got my kids to love me so I think I'm rich enough.
I just thank God for the blessings that His mercy has bestowed -
I'm drinking from the saucer cause my cup has overflowed.

If He gives me strength and courage when the way grows steep and rough I'll not ask other blessings since 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.
