Lord Of The Dance Lyrics

Lord Of The Dance lyrics

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 the Earth

At Bethlehem I had my birth



Dance, then, wherever you may be

I am the lord of the dance said he

And I lead you all wherever you may be

And I lead you all in the dance said he



I danced for the scribe and the pharisees

They would not dance, they wouldn't follow me

I danced for the fishermen, for James and John

They came with me so the dance went on



Dance, then, wherever you may be

I am the lord of the dance said he

And I lead you all wherever you may be

And I lead you all in the dance said he



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 high

Left me there on the cross to die



Dance, then, wherever you may be

I am the lord of the dance said he

And I lead you all wherever you may be

And I lead you all in the dance said he



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 the dance goes on



Dance, then, wherever you may be

I am the lord of the dance said he

And I lead you all wherever you may be

And I lead you all in the dance said he
