My Cup Overflows

November 23

I’ve never made a fortune,
and it’s probably too late now.
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 sowed.
I’m drinking from my saucer,
‘Cause my cup has overflowed.

Haven’t got a lot of riches,
and at times the going’s tough,
But I’ve got loved ones all 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.

I remember times when things went wrong,
my faith wore somewhat thin.
But all at once the dark clouds broke,
the sun peeped through again.

Lord, help me not to gripe,
'bout the tough rows I have hoed.
I’m drinking from my saucer,
‘Cause my cup has overflowed.
