Edgar Guest - A Wonderful WorldEdgar Guest - A Wonderful World
Work rating: Low


IT `S a wonderful world when you sum it all up, And we ought to be glad we are in it; The fellow who drinks from old Misery`s cup Gets the goblet of joy the next minute. In a wonderful way In the course of a day Strange changes occur as by magic, There are solemn and sad things And joyful and glad things, And things that are comic and tragic. It`s a wonderful world, full of wonderful things, No two days alike in their passing; Some new joy or sorrow the rising sun brings, Some new charm the former outclassing. And yesterday`s glad Are perhaps today`s sad, And yesterday`s poor may be wealthy; Oh, the changes are quick, Even yesterday`s sick May today or tomorrow be healthy. It`s a wonderful world, for we never can tell What for us has the morrow in store; Things happen as though by some magical spell That never have happened before. And nobody knows Or can ever disclose What the joy of the future may be; But of one thing I `m sure, Despite all we endure `T will be worth while to hang on and see.
