Reverend O’Malley was selling his horse. He placed his add in the paper and soon a buyer came calling. The buyer looked over the horse and decided the price was right for such a fine animal.

Rev. O’Malley explained to the gentleman that the horse only responded to biblical commands. To make the horse go the command was "Praise the Lord", the command to make the horse stop was "Hallelujah".

The man then handed Rev. O’Malley the money and climbed on the horse. "Praise the Lord", called the horse’s new owner. The horse responded by moving in a light trot. "Praise the Lord", said the man. The horse then picked up the pace.

Amazed by this, the man then said one more time, "Praise the Lord". The horse then proceeded to run in full gallop.


The man suddenly noticed that his new steed was fast approaching a ravine. "Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah", shouted the man. The horse then responded by sliding to a stop, just centimetres from the edge of the ravine.


The man then opened his eyes and looked down over the edge, looked up into the sky and sighed his relief with the words, "Praise the Lord!"
