I looked at her and sighed and wished I was as fair.

      When suddenly she rose to leave, I saw her hobble down the aisle.

      She had one leg and used a crutch

      But as she passed, she passed 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 a while, he seemed so very 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."

      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 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.

      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've been blessed indeed, The world is mine.
