The Exeter Times-Advocate, 1974-05-09, Page 11A Tribute To Motber In spite of the fact we complain and lament And view this old world with much discontent, Deploring conditions and grumbling because There's so much injustice and so many flaws, It's a wonderful world and it's people like you Who make it that way by the things that they do — For a warm, ready smile or a kind, thoughtful deed, Or a hand outstretched in an hour of need Can change our whole outlook and make the world bright Where a minute before just nothing seemed right — It's a Wonderful World and it always will be If we keep our eyes open and focused to see The Wonderful Things man is capable of When he opens his heart to God and His Love, MR. and MRS.
