Hymn #365

A Southern Baptist 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 choir leader stood very cautiously and announced with a smile, nearly laughing,

"For our closing song, let us sing Hymn #365, "Shall We Gather at the River?"
