Lyrics
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 sowed
I'm drinking from my saucer
'Cause my cup has overflowed
Ain't got a lot of riches
sometimes the goin's tough
But I've got a friend in Jesus
and that makes me rich enough
I thank God for all His blessings on me
and the mercy that He's bestowed
I'm drinking from my saucer
'Cause my cup has overflowed
recitation
Oh yea, I’ve been through some storms, and yea, I
know there were times when my, well my faith must
have gotten a little thin. But you know what it seemed
like, one day all at once those dark clouds broke and
that ol’ sun, she started shinin’ again
So Lord, help me not to grumble and complain
about the tough rows I've hoed
I'm drinking from my saucer
'Cause my cup has overflowed
And if I should go on living
if the way gets steep and rough
I won't ask for other blessings
cause I'm already blessed enough
may I never be too busy
to help another bear his load
and I'll keep drinking from my saucer Lord
'Cause my cup has overflowed
Yes I'll keep drinking from my saucer Lord
Cause’ my cup has overflowed
my cup has overflowed
