"The Closing Door" lyrics

"The Closing Door"

The closing door
The end of people
His likes no more
Go tell it on the steeple
The river runs
At a fever
Just like a drum
With no meter

The closing door
The blue-eyed raven
Will sing no more
Above the congregation
Like Noah's dove
With his burden
Above the mighty flood
Won't be returning

To the closing door
