And as I go along life's way I'm reaping better than I sow I'm drinking from my saucer 'Cause my cup has overflowed

Haven't got a lot of riches and sometimes the going's tough But I've got loving ones 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

O, Remember times when things went wrong My faith wore somewhat thin But all at once the dark clouds broke and sun peeped through again

So Lord, 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 loads Then I'll keep drinking from my saucer 'Cause my cup has overflowed.

SELF PITY


May I never give way to self-pity and sorrow, may I always be sure of a better tomorrow, may I stand undaunted come what may, secure in the knowledge I have only to pray.

Today do not quit-carry on. Look ahead, not back.

Regret is futile...
