who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness;
take it to the Lord in prayer.

cumbered with a load of care?

In his arms he'll take and shield thee;
thou wilt find a solace there.

   Will be our sweet portion there.

FILL IN THE BLANKS

FREDDY:
When she mentioned how her aunt bit off the spoon,
She completely done me in.
And my heart went on a journey to the moon
When she told about her father and the gin.
But I never saw a more enchanting farce
Than the moment when she shouted,
"Move your bloomin' ..."

[dialog]

I have often walked down this __(street)__ before,
But the pavement always stayed beneath my __(feet)__ before.
All at once am I several stories high.
Knowing I'm on the street where you live.

Are there lilac trees in the __(heart)__ of town?
Can you hear a lark in any other part of town?
