Quinn Mink, from the Office of Undergraduate Admissions explains
Drinking from My Saucer | John Paul Moore
I’ve never made a fortune and it’s probably too late now.
But I don’t worry about that much, I’m happy anyhow.
And as I go along life’s way, I’m reaping better than I sowed.
I’m drinking from my saucer, ‘Cause my cup has overflowed.
I don’t have a lot of riches, and sometimes the going’s tough.
But I’ve got loved ones around me, and that makes me rich enough.
I thank God for his blessings, and the mercies He’s bestowed.
I’m drinking from my saucer, ’Cause my cup has overflowed.
I remember times when things went wrong, my faith wore somewhat thin.
But all at once the dark clouds broke, and the sun peeped through again.
So God, help me not to gripe about the tough rows that I’ve hoed.
I’m drinking from my saucer, ‘Cause my cup has overflowed.
If God gives me strength and courage, when the way grows steep and rough.
I’ll not ask for other blessings, I’m already blessed enough.
And may I never be too busy, to help others bear their loads.
Then I’ll keep drinking from my saucer, ‘Cause my cup has overflowed.

“Come, Ye Thankful People, Come” is a traditional Christian hymn often associated with harvest festivals and Thanksgiving celebrations. The hymn was written by Henry Alford in 1844, an Anglican cleric and theologian. Alford, who later became the Dean of Canterbury, composed the hymn to reflect the agricultural rhythms and the cycle of planting and harvesting that were integral to rural life in 19th-century England.
The hymn’s lyrics express gratitude for the bountiful harvest and serve as a metaphor for spiritual growth and the final gathering of souls in the Christian eschatological vision. The first verse invites thankful people to come together to praise God for the harvest. Subsequent verses extend the metaphor, comparing the harvest to the final judgment, when believers are gathered to be with God.
The music most commonly associated with “Come, Ye Thankful People, Come” was composed by George J. Elvey in 1858, and the tune is named “St. George’s Windsor.” The hymn’s enduring popularity stems from its dual themes of thanksgiving and eschatological hope, making it suitable for both seasonal celebrations and reflective worship services. Its singable melody and rich imagery continue to resonate with congregations, embodying a sense of communal gratitude and spiritual anticipation.
