Friday's Assignment

Things don't always work out in friendships.
Have you ever been ditched, gotten ditched, and faced rejection? What happened? Then what happened? Tell a partner about your experience or someone else's.


Here are your tasks:
1. Watch the video, and fill in the 10 blanks below. 

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?
Does enchantment pour out of every door?
No, it's just on the street where you live!

And, oh, the towering feeling
Just to know somehow you are near ;
The overpowering feeling
That any second you may suddenly appear !

People stop and stare . They don't bother me,
For there's nowhere else on Earth that I would rather be.
Let the time go by. I won't care if I
Can be here on the street where you live.

What a Friend We Have in Jesus | Joseph M. Scriven
1. What a friend we have in Jesus, 
all our sins and griefs to bear! 
What a privilege to carry 
everything to God in prayer! 
O what peace we often forfeit, 
O what needless pain we bear, 
all because we do not carry 
everything to God in prayer. 

2. Have we trials and temptations? 
Is there trouble anywhere? 
We should never be discouraged; 
take it to the Lord in prayer. 
Can we find a friend so faithful 
who will all our sorrows share? 
Jesus knows our every weakness; 
take it to the Lord in prayer. 

3. Are we weak and heavy laden, 
cumbered with a load of care? 
Precious Savior, still our refuge; 
take it to the Lord in prayer. 
Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? 
Take it to the Lord in prayer! 
In his arms he'll take and shield thee; 
thou wilt find a solace there.
