Fourth Sunday of Advent

Wouldn't this old world be better,
If the folks we met would say,
I know something good about you,
and then treat us just that way!
+++
Wouldn't it be fine and dandy,
If each hand clasp warm and true,
Carried with it this assurance
I know something good about you!
+++
Wouldn't things here be more pleasant
If the good that's in us all,
Were the only thing about us,
That folks bothered to recall!
+++
Wouldn't life be lots more happy
If we'd praise the good we see!
For there's such a lot of goodness
In the worst of you and me.
+++
Wouldn't it be nice to practice
This fine way of thinking too;
You know something good about me,
I know something good about you!
+++
