HYMN Lyrics Text: I Danced In The Morning
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.
Dance then 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
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 John
They came with me
and the dance went on.
3. I danced on the Sabbath
and I cured the lame
The holy people said it was a
They whipped and they stripped
And they hung Me on high,
They left me there
on the cross to die
4. I danced on a Friday
when the sun turned black
It’s hard to dance
with the devil on your back
They buried My body
and they thought I had 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
will never never die.
I’ll live in you
if you live in Me,
I am the Lord of the dance’
said He.
