1. 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. Refrain "Dance, then, wherever you may be; I am the Lord of the Dance," said he. "I’ll lead you all, wherever you may be, I will lead you all in the Dance," said he. 2. 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 for John; They came with me and the dance went on. 3. I danced on the Sabbath and I cured the lame, The holy people, they 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. 4. 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. 5. They cut me down and I leapt up high; I am the life that’ll never, never die, I’ll live in you if you’ll live in me; "I am the Lord of the Dance," said he.
