My Cup Has Overflowed

 
I’ve never made a fortune,

and it’s probably too late now.

But I don’t worry ‘bout that much,

‘Cause I’m happy anyhow

 
And as I go along life’s way,

I reap more than ever sowed.

I’m drinking from my saucer,

‘Cause my cup has overflowed.

 
I Haven’t got a lot of riches,

and sometimes the going’s tough

But my loved ones are around me,

and that makes me rich enough

 
I thank God for all 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,

and the sun peeped through again

 
So Lord please help me not to gripe,

about tough rows I”ve hoed.

I’m drinking from my saucer,

‘Cause my cup has overflowed.

 
If God gives me strength and courage,

When the way grows steep and rough.

I’ll not ask for other blessings,

I’m already blessed enough

 
And may I never be too busy,

to help others bear their load.

While I’m drinking from my saucer,

‘Cause my cup has overflowed.
