OCTOBER 22, 2009: "MY CUP OVERFLOWS"

MY CUP OVERFLOWS (Janis Kelly @2009)

I wanna live a life that's filled with grace;
Just like the lilies that grow in the field;
I want to move through my days in rhythm;
With all that I yield.
I want to float on a sea of tranquility;
Embracing my perfect divinity;
And recognizing the deepest of truths:
That all my good comes from God!

And so I give and I give, from the depths of my soul;
To the bottom of my heart;
I give of my time, I give my treasure, I give my love!
Yes I give and I give, from the depths of my soul
To the bottom of my heart;
And the more that I give, the more my cup overflows!

I used to think that struggle was natural to life;
Just like the storm clouds and just like the rain;
I used to think I'd grow through the hardships;
And that I'd weather the pain.
But that was before I surrendered to grace;
And its tender mercy soon gave me the space;
To recognize what I knew all along:
That only good comes from God!

And so I give and I give, from the depths of my soul;
To the bottom of my heart;
I give of my time, I give my treasure, I give my love!
Yes I give and I give, from the depths of my soul;
To the bottom of my heart;
And the more that I give, the more my cup--

And so I give and I give, from the depths of my soul;
To the bottom of my heart;
I give of my time, I give my treasure, I give my love!
Yes I give and I give, from the depths of my soul;
To the bottom of my heart;
And the more that I give--
Yes, the more that I give, yeah!
'Said the more that I give, the more my cup--
My cup overflows!
