<b>lord of the dance</b> by <i>Folkaholics</i><br />I danced in the morning when the world was young

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, dance, 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 Scribes and the Pharisees

they wouldn't dance, they wouldn't follow me

I danced for the fisherman James and John

they came with me so the dance went on

Dance, dance, 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 they stripped they hung me high

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 lead you all wherever you may be

and I lead you all in the dance, said he

I danced on a Friday when the world turned black

it's hard to dance with the Devil on your back

they buried my body they thought I was gone

but I am the dance and the dance goes on

Dance, dance, 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

They cut me down and I leapt up high

I am the life that will never, never die

I'll live in you if you live in me

I am the Lord of the Dance, said he

Dance, dance, 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
