the old folks often gave advice
that now is out of style
but now I'm old so please excuse
I'll say it with a smile
each day I must remind myself
to tally up the grace
and blessings from infinity
than pain cannot displace
throughout a life the gold is there
but you must use your eyes
to see the love surrounding you
perhaps the greatest prize
and if like me your needs are met
with all you might demand
then life should never weigh you down
for you are in command
the treasure lies in simple things
like love and friends and home
the only blessings that we need
this side of heaven's dome
