Family Kelly - LORD OF THE DANCE lyrics

I danced in the morning when the world was begun I danced on the moon and the stars and the sun I came down from Heaven and I danced on the earth At then Bethlehem I had my birth Chorus: Dance, then, wherever you may be For 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 would not 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 on high And left me there on the 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 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
