Dance, dance, wherever you may be
I am the lord of the dance, said he
I'll lead you all, wherever you may be
I'll lead you all in the dance, said he

I danced in the morning when the world was become
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, dance, wherever you may be
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 wouldn't dance, they wouldn't follow me
I danced for the fishermen, for James and John
They came with me an 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
And I'll 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 ripped and they stripped and 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
And I'll 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 was gone
But I am the dance, and the dance still 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'll lead you all in the dance, said he

They cut me down and I leap up high
I am the life that will never, never die
I'll live in you and you'll live in me
For 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'll lead you all, wherever you may be
And I'll 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

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
