Mom of 3, It's from a church hymn. Did you think to Pray. We sang it in Sacrament meeting last Sunday. I always get confused at that part. "Balm of Gilead did you borrow?"
Judy, I guess I didn't get your joke. Now I'M the loser who need the joke explanation.
I remember a beautiful hymn that begins with "There is a balm in Gilead ... " but I don't think it's the same as the "Did you Think to Pray" line. I'm sure it can be Googled, but I haven't had time to do that. Hugs from Grandma Helen

That is too funny. Now you have me really wondering what it is.
Hang in there! It will get better, maybe not today and probably not tomorrow but one of these days it is going to be Celestial! HUGS!

Apparently I am the one who is off! I just thought it would be funny to ask to borrow some since I had no idea what it was.
ya. so what is it anyway? did you figure that out yet?
it is a healing ointment used in biblical times. you can google it.
