HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYBODY!!!

DRINKING FROM MY SAUCER
by John Paul Moore

I’ve never made a fortune
And it’s probably too late now
But 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

I haven’t got a lot of riches
And sometimes the going’s tough
But I’ve got loved ones around me
And that’s makes me rich enough

I thank God for His blessing
And the mercies He’s bestowed
I’m drinking from my saucer
‘Cause my cup has overflowed

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

So God help me not to gripe about
The tough rows that 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
Then I’ll keep drinking from my saucer
‘Cause my cup has overflowed!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYBODY!!!
