L-1      It's certainly a privilege to be back amongst these Spanish people again this morning. And I wonder if Jim's getting this. Oh, he is getting the recording. I've still got the record that the little Spanish choir made when I was here before with Brother Garcia. And I forget that little song they used to sing me. But, oh, how I liked that! And those children now are all grown and married. I hear from them now and then. And I walked in this morning and seen little Joseph, and now it really done something to me, and I was certainly happy to see you.

L-2 And, now, I got one word I can say in Spanish. Would you like to hear it? "Hallelujah!" I'll never forget the word. I was trying to get a deaf woman to hear me one time. Now, I may say this all wrong, you see, but the best I remember it was "oiga." That right? Hear me. Hear, "oiga." And then never forget, "Gloria a Dios!" Just wonderful! Oh, I had the opportunity to be down in the capitol, Mexico City, speak with them down there. How happy I was! And I used to...

L-3   I was in Finland after I was here. And always remind me of speaking to a little Finnish woman. They taken me up to what they call a "bethany." Every nation has it's own idea. (Am, are you getting the rebound, I'm too close to that? Can you hear all right, how's that?) This little woman, she was a lovely little person. But she was like me, she liked to talk a whole lot. And the interpreter... she talked real fast, and--and the interpreter couldn't say it fast enough to what she wanted to say it. And she would stand and her face would get red, she said, "I've got it in for them guys a-babbling."

L-4 But, you know, I've noticed that all the--the birds all sing in English, dogs bark in English, babies cry in English. I wonder what's the matter with us anyhow. But each one of us think that our--our language will be the Millennium language, of course. But we who have received the Holy Ghost, that is true, 'cause we have a Heavenly language.

L-5   We have Brother Rowe here with us this morning, a diplomat from Washington. I believe he served under five or six Presidents, seven Presidents. And you know how I feel standing this, on this platform, speak, with a man like that sitting behind me. But his testimony always was such an outstanding one to me, and especially when he... I believe he was Lutheran, if I'm not mistaken, either Catholic or Lutheran, Lutheran. And he said he... something about crawling under a tent in a Pentecostal meeting, and he got up... Finally he made his way to the altar, and, when he did, the Lord came down upon him and blessed him so much that... I think he can speak in about seven different languages. And said he tried one, "it didn't work," then tried another, "it didn't work." And I suppose he can speak Spanish same as you all can. So he--he tried all of them, and they wouldn't work. And, see, know what, God was so good, He come down and give him a language he never tried before, said, "It works!" That's right. I think that's the way it'll be on the other side.

L-6   Many memories I hold in my heart of the little church up, I believe it... oh, I forget where it's at. It's over here somewhere close to Tonto Street. And I remember that. I can think of the word "Tonto Street," where the Spanish Apostolic church used to be.
