The lyrics are copyright so cannot be re-produced in full here. But they are available form this website. A rough outline is:1 I hear a sound coming from the mountain,
I hear it louder each day ...
Chorus
Prepare ye the way,
Prepare ye the way,

I feel God's love coming from the mountain
I feel it strong each day ....
