Lord Of The Dance Lyrics


Corries Lord Of The Dance


I danced in the morning when the world was begun

I danced in the moon, the stars and the sun

I danced down from Heaven and I danced on Earth

At Bethlehem I had my birth



Chorus:

Dance, then, wherever you may be

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

They would not dance; they would not follow me

So I danced for the fisherman, for James and John

They came with me and the dance went on



I danced on the Sabbath and I cured the lame

They holy people said it was a shame

So they whipped, they stripped, they hung me high

And they left me on the cross to die



I danced on a Friday, when the sky turned black

Its hard to dance with the Devil on your back

Oh they buried my body, they thought I'd gone

But I and the dance still go on



They cut me down, but I lept on high

I am the light that will never, never die

But I'll live in you if you'll live in Me

I am the Lord of the Dance, said he
