Lord Of The Dance

I danced in the morning when the world was begun,

I danced on the moon and the stars and the sun

I came down from Heaven and I danced on the earth

At then Bethlehem I had my birth

Dance, then, wherever you may be

For I am the Lord of the Dance said he

And I'll lead you all, wherever you may be

And I'll lead you all in the Dance said He.

I danced for the scribe and the Pharisee,

But they would not dance and they would not follow me;

I danced for the fishermen, for James and John

They came with me and the Dance went on.

I danced on the Sabbath and I cured the lame;

The holy people said it was a shame.

They whipped and they stripped and they hung me on high

And left me there on the cross to die

I danced on a Friday when the sky turned black

It's hard to dance with the Devil on your back

They buried my body and they thought I'd gone

But I am the Dance and I still go on.

They cut me down and I leapt up high:

I am the life that will never, never die.

I'll live in you if you live in me

I am the Lord of the Dance said he
