I danced in the morning when the world was begun
I danced in the Moon & the Stars & the Sun
I came down from Heaven & I danced on Earth
At Bethlehem I had my birth:
Dance Dance, wherever you may be
I am the Lord of the Dance, said He!
And I'll lead you all, wherever you may be
I will lead you all in the Dance, said He!
I danced for the scribe & the pharisee
They wouldn't dance & they wouldn't follow me
I danced for the fishermen, for James & John
They came with me & the Dance went on:
Dance Dance, wherever you may be
I am the Lord of the Dance, said He!
And I'll lead you all, wherever you may be
I will lead you all in the Dance, said He!
I danced on the Sabbath & I cured the lame
The holy people said it was a shame!
They whipped & they stripped & they hung me high
And they left me there on a cross to die!
Dance Dance, wherever you may be
I am the Lord of the Dance, said He!
And I'll lead you all, wherever you may be
I will 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 & they thought I'd gone
But I am the Dance & the dance goes on!
Dance Dance, wherever you may be
I am the Lord of the Dance, said He!
And I'll lead you all, wherever you may be
I will lead you all in the Dance, said He!
Dance Dance, wherever you may be
I am the Lord of the Dance, said He!
And I'll lead you all, wherever you may be
I will lead you all in the Dance, said He!
I danced in the Moon & the Stars & the Sun
I came down from Heaven & I danced on Earth
At Bethlehem I had my birth:

I will lead you all in the Dance, said He!
