I. THE NEEDS OF HUMAN PILGRIMAGE.

1. How indispensable are the things which we need.

2. How many are the things which we need.

3. How constant are our needs. We may change our place and our circumstances, but we never change our dependent condition.

II. THE DIVINE PROVISION FOR THE NEEDS OF HUMAN PILGRIMAGE.

1. Promised by God.

2. Bestowed in connection with human effort.

3. Enkindled human joy, which was expressed in this song.

4. Suitably commemorated. Let us be eager to perpetuate the memory of our mercies.

III. THE CONTINUOUSNESS OF HUMAN PILGRIMAGE. The well was not the goal: a place to halt, but not to settle.

(W. Jones.)
