Lord of the Dance Lyrics[Verse 1]
I danced in the morning when the world was begun
I danced in the moon and the stars and the sun
I came down from Heaven, and I danced on earth
At Bethlehem I had my birth

[Chorus]
Dance then, whatever you may be
I am the Lord of the Dance, said He
And I'll lead you all, whatever you may be
And I'll lead you all in the Dance, said He
[Verse 2]
I danced for the scribe and the Pharisee
They would not dance, they wouldn't follow Me
So I danced for the fishermen, James and John
Came with me, and the Dance went on

[Chorus]
Dance then, whatever you may be
I am the Lord of the Dance, said He
And I'll lead you all, whatever you may be
And I'll lead you all in the Dance, said He

[Verse 3]
I danced on the sabbath, and I cured the lame
The holy people, they said it was a shame
They whipped, they stripped, then they hung me high
Left me there on a cross to die

[Chorus]
Dance then, whatever you may be
I am the Lord of the Dance, said He
And I'll lead you all whatever you may be
And I'll lead you all in the Dance, said He

[Verse 4]
I danced on the Friday when the sky turned black
It's hard to dance with the Devil on your back
They buried my body, they thought I'd gone
But I am the Dance, and I still go on
[Chorus]
Dance then, whatever you may be
I am the Lord of the Dance, said He
And I'll lead you all, whatever you may be
And I'll lead you all in the Dance, said He

[Verse 5]
They cut me down but I leap up high
I am the Life that will never, never die
I live in you if you live in Me
I am the Lord of the Dance, said He

[Chorus]
Dance then, whatever you may be
For I am the Lord of the Dance, said He
And I'll lead you all, whatever you may be
And I'll lead you all in the Dance, said He

[Chorus]
Dance then, whatever you may be
I am the Lord of the Dance, said He
And I'll lead you all, whatever you may be
And I'll lead you all in the Dance, said He

[Chorus]
Dance then, whatever you may be
I am the Lord of the Dance, said He
And I'll lead you all, whatever you may be
And I'll lead you all in the Dance, said He
