Cry for Help Department

Gang is sitting in the Coffee House, when Joey entres with a make up on his face. Chandler can't help but comments:
- And this from the Cry for Help Department: Are you wearing makeup?

What is that "Cry for Help Department". Is there common combination of such words as "cry for help"? And how is that then related to Joey's look?

    A cry for help is acting like you need help without actually saying it. So with Joey wearing make up it's a joke about how a man wearing make up could be seen as a cry for help.

s03e17 Chandler: No, Hymn 253: "His Eyes are on the Sparrow."

How is Chandler's reference to Hymn 253: "His Eyes are on the Sparrow" funny? Ross and Rachel just broke up. Rachel invites guys to a free event she has tickets to. They reject the invitation, because Ross had them reserved for that same night earlier. Rachel says that it's not a big deal and leaves. Everyone is upset especially Chandler. He lights up a cigarette even though he wasn't smoking for a year already. Someone knocks on a door and Chandler says: Chandler: That's great. With my luck, that's him. Phoebe:  Him? Ross? Chandler:  No, Hymn 253: "His Eyes are on the Sparrow." What is that with this hymn?
