"Of His Coming" lyrics

once when an owl cried on the hill
my poor heart would melt in fear
but now in the difficult dark of the night
nothing can stay its wandering
on the long mountain roads of his coming

not even an ape loping in my yard...
nothing can stay my heart’s wandering
nothing can stay its wandering
on the long mountain roads of his coming...

[you cannot stop where i go
i am coming]
