I danced in the morning when the world was begun

I danced in the morning

when the world was begun,

and I danced in the moon

and the stars and the sun,

and 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'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 wouldn't 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 high,

and they left me there on a 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 leap up high;

I am the life

they'll never, never die;

I'll live in you

if you'll live in me:

I am the Lord

of the Dance, said he.
