compare:

for he that diligently seeketh shall find; and the mysteries of god shall be unfolded unto them, by the power of the holy ghost, as well in these times as in times of old, and as well in times of old as in times to come; wherefore, the course of the lord is one eternal round. –1 nephi 10:19

and it may suffice if i only say they are preserved for a wise purpose, which purpose is known unto god; for he doth counsel in wisdom over all his works, and his paths are straight, and his course is one eternal round. –alma 37:12

for god doth not walk in crooked paths, neither doth he turn to the right hand nor to the left, neither doth he vary from that which he hath said, therefore his paths are straight, and his course is one eternal round. d&c 3:2

listen to the voice of the lord your god, even alpha and omega, the beginning and the end, whose course is one eternal round, the same today as yesterday, and forever. –d&c 35:1

but if you're walking down the street
why don't you look down to the basement
for sitting very quietly there is a man who has no head
his eye is single and his whole body also is filled with light

one light, light that is one though the lamps be many

and as he sits there, so he will walk all among you
and the streets are his and all the people
and even the temples and the whole world

and many's the time that he walks to the river
and seeing the tollman and seeing the ferryman
the light within him leaps to greet them
for he sees that their faces are none but his own

one light, light that is one though the lamps be many

"you'll never enjoy the world aright
till the sea itself floweth in your veins
till you are clothed with the heavens and crowned with the stars"
