Come

By Spurgeon

I HAVE heard that in the desert, when the caravans are in want of water, they are accustomed to send on a camel with its rider some distance in advance; then after a little space, follows another; and then at short intervals, others. As soon as the first man finds water, almost before he stoops down to drink, he shouts aloud, "Come!" the next one hearing the voice, repeats the word, "Come!" while the nearest again takes up the cry, "Come!" until the whole wilderness echoes with the word "Come!" So in that verse the Spirit and bride say the first of all, "Come!" then let him that heareth say, "Come!" and "whosoever is athirst let him come, and take of the water of life freely."—Spurgeon.
