God Forgive Me When I Whine

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.
