A Baptist minister was completing a Temperance sermon.

With great fervor, 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
thundered: "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 song 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?"
