Dear Lord please make me happy and contented with my life. For I know there’s others far worse off than me. There are some who lie in anguish their bodies wracked with pain As for me I’m only blind and cannot see. My little world is darkness, there’s sunshine in my heart. There’s sunshine I must spread while I remain. And I know that up in heaven my sight will be restored Where there will be no darkness, sorrow, tears or pain. I thank thee for these hands of mine, I thank thee for my voice I thank thee for each blessing that I own Then I thank thee for the promise when my life on earth is over I shall gladly sing and play around your throne. I know the bible tells me that you while here on earth That heal the sick and make the blind to see. And I know that if I’m faithfull and your commandments keep. Up in heaven you will do the same for me
