Drinking from my Saucer
~ Michael Combs ~


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 sow
I'm drinking from my saucer
'Cause my cup has overflowed

Ain't got a lot of riches
Sometimes the going's rough
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

Oh,sure I been through some storms
And yes, I'm sure there were times
When my, well my faith must have got a little thin
But you know what it seemed like one day all at once
those dark clouds broke and that old sun she started shining again
So Lord, help me not to grumble and complain
about the tough rows that I have hoed
I'm drinking from my saucer
'Cause my cup has overflowed

And if I should go on livin' If God gives me strength and courage
When the way grows 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 loads
And I'll keep drinking from my saucer Lord
'Cause my cup has overflowed!"
Yes I'll keep drinkin from my saucer Lord
'Cause my cup has over flowed
