Call to Come

“And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely…  He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus” (Revelation 22:17,20). 

The Spirit and the bride of Christ
Say, “Come” to all who are athirst.
Do not by others be enticed,
For other wells are dry and cursed.

We know our Savior said at last
That He will come to call His own.
With thunderous voice and trumpet blast
We shall be gathered to His throne.

Until that long-awaited day,
The bride of Christ still says, “Amen!”
As “even so,” His people pray,
Now “come, Lord Jesus!”  Come again!  

We call to all who thirst and yearn:
Now come to Christ, all those who will!
We also call for Christ’s return,
A promise that He’ll soon fulfill! 

We know You’ll come, Lord, after all,
And we shall see You face to face.
Until that day, we join the call:
O sinners, come!  Be saved by grace!
