"Shall We Gather at the River?" is a Methodist hymn that became an anthem in John Ford's movies. It speckles the soundtracks of Stagecoach, Wagon Master, and My Darling Clementine. But the song's religious utopianism ("Soon our happy hearts will quiver / With the melody of peace") also makes it a perfect target for parody. "There's no more time for praying!"
