A disobedient prophet who paid his fare (Jonah 1),
One whose house prospered when the ark was there (2 Sam. 6).
Again, whose house was built upon the city wall (Josh. 2)?
And one who was a fellow-laborer with Paul (Philemon).
A people who ever liked to hear something new (Acts 17);
And last, a man of Carmel whom the Lord Himself slew (1 Sam. 25).
The initials the name of a river spell,
Which flows through a land God loves so well.
