touch the face of the true God

"He came riding fast like a phoenix out of fire flames He came dressed in black with a cross bearing my name He came bathed in light and the splendor and glory I can't believe what the lord has finally sent me He said dance for me, fanciulla gentile He said laugh awhile, I can make your heart feel He said fly with me, touch the face of the true God And then cry with joy at the depth of my love 'Cause I've prayed days, I've prayed nights For the lord just to send me home some sign I've looked long, I've looked far To bring peace to my black and empty heart"
