Always Check With the Music Minister

A preacher was wrapping up his Sunday sermon on temperance. With great emphasis he said, "If I had all the beer in the world, I'd take it and pour it in the river."
Then, with his voice rising, he said, "And if I had all the wine in the world, I'd take it and pour it in the river."
And then finally, shaking his fist in the air, he concluded by saying, "And if I had all the whiskey in the world, I'd take it and dump it in the river."
With that, he completed his sermon and sat down.

The minister of music stood up, and announced with an uncertain smile, "For our closing song, let us sing hymn #365, "Shall We Gather at the River."
