Today,
while riding on a bus,
I saw a girl with golden hair...
I wished that I could be as fair.
Then suddenly she rose to leave,
I saw her hobble down the aisle.
She had one leg and wore a crutch...
But as she passed, she wore a smile.
Oh, God, forgive me when I whine...
I have 2 legs, the world is mine.
I stopped to buy some candy.
The lad who sold it had such charm.
I talked with him, he seemed so glad.
If I were late, it'd do no harm.
And as I left, he said to me,
"I thank you, you've been so kind.
It's nice to talk with folks like you.
Who do not mind that I am blind."
Oh, God, forgive me when I whine...
I have 2 eyes, the world is mine.
Later while walking down the street,
I saw a child with eyes of blue.
He stood and watched the others play.
He did not know what he should do.
I stopped 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 couldn't hear.
Oh, God, forgive me when I whine...
I have 2 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.
