Song About a Bear

A young boy attended his first Sunday School class and he
was relating the events of the day to his mother. "We sang
a song about a bear," he proudly said.

"You sang a song about a bear?" His mother asked.

"Yes," he piped up. "We sang a song about a bear that
was cross-eyed."

His mother blinked. "You sang a song about a bear that
was cross-eyed?" she asked, wondering what this had to do
with Sunday School.

"Uh-huh. We sang a song about a bear that was cross-eyed
and his name was Gladly," her son explained.

His mother pressed. "What do you mean?"

With a big smile, he said, "We sang 'Gladly, the Cross-
eyed Bear.'"
