God Forgive me when I whine.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
. Today, upon a bus, I saw a lovely maid with golden
|
||
|
|
hair, I envied her, she seemed so gay, and I wished I
|
||
|
|
were as fair.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
. When suddenly she rose to leave, I saw her hobble
|
||
|
|
down the aisle; she had one foot, and used a crutch,
|
||
|
|
but as she passed, she had a smile.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
. Oh, God forgive me when I whine; I have two feet,
|
||
|
|
the world is mine.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
. And when I stopped to buy some sweets, The lad who
|
||
|
|
sold them had such charm. I talked with him, he said
|
||
|
|
to me, It's nice to talk to men like you, You see, he
|
||
|
|
said I'm blind.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
. Oh, God forgive me when I whine; I have two eyes,
|
||
|
|
the world is mine.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
. Then, as I passed along the way, I saw a child with
|
||
|
|
eyes of blue. He stood and watched the others play;
|
||
|
|
it seemed he knew not what to do. I stopped for a moment;
|
||
|
|
and then I said, "Why don't you join the others, dear?"
|
||
|
|
He looked ahead without a word, and then I knew he could
|
||
|
|
not hear.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
. Oh, God forgive me when I whine; I have two ears,
|
||
|
|
the world is mine.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
. With feet to take me where I'd go,
|
||
|
|
. With eyes to see the sunsets glow,
|
||
|
|
. With ears to hear what I would know,
|
||
|
|
. I'm blessed indeed.
|
||
|
|
. The world is mine.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
. Oh God, forgive me if I whine.
