Today Upon A Bus
I Saw A Girl With Golden Hair
And Wished I Was As Fair
When Suddenly She Rose To Leave
I Saw Her Hobble Down The Aisle
She Had One Leg And Wore A Crutch
But As She Passed A Smile
Ya Allah 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
You See He Said I’m Blind
Ya Allah 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 To 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
Ya Allah 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’d Know
Ya Allah Forgive Me When I Whine
I’ve Been Blessed Indeed The World Is Mine
