HYMN No.365
A minister was completing a temperance sermon.
With great emphasis he said, 'If I had all the beer in the world, I'd take it and pour it into the river.'
With even greater emphasis he said, 'And if I had all the wine in the world, I'd take it and pour it into the river.'
And then finally, shaking his fist in the air, he said, 'And if I had all the whiskey in the world, I'd take it and pour it into the river.'
Sermon complete, he sat down.
The hymn-leader stood very cautiously and announced with a smile, nearly laughing, 'For our closing hymn, let us sing hymn No.365, 'Shall We Gather at the River?' '
With thanks to P & K.
