THE WORLD IS MINE
Today upon a bus i saw a lovely girl with golden hair; I envied her........she seemed so gay.....and wished i were as fair. When suddenly she rose to leave, i saw her hobble down the aisle;She had one foot and wore a crutch,but as she passed a smile.
oh God forgive me when i whine;
I have two feet...... the world is mine!
And then i stopped to buy some sweets.
The lad who served them had such charm,I talked with him. He said to me; "Its nice to talk to folks loke you. You see," he said, " i'm blind"
Oh God forgive me when i whine;
I have two eyes...... the world is mine!
Then walking down the street, 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, then 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 sunset's glow,
With ears to hear what i would know,
Oh God forgive me when i whine;
I'm blessed indeed! The world is mine!
It makes you think dont it?
