Lord of the Dance
Author: Sydney Bertram Carter (1915-2004) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #404 (2005) Meter: Irregular with refrain Scripture: Luke 23:33-46 First Line: I danced in the morning when the world was begun Refrain First Line: Dance, then, wherever you may be Lyrics: 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,
and I’ll lead you all, wherever you may be,
and I’ll lead you all in the Dance, said he.
2 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. [Refrain]
3 I danced on the Sabbath
when I cured the lame,
the holy people
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. [Refrain]
4 I danced on a Friday
and 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. [Refrain]
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. [Refrain] Topics: Christ Incarnate Passion and Death; Christ Incarnate Public Ministry; Dance; Jesus Life and Ministry Languages: English Tune Title: LORD OF THE DANCE

“Heal the sick and preach the word.”
Lest the church neglect its mission,
and the gospel go unheard,
help us witness to your purpose
with renewed integrity:
with the Spirit’s gifts empower us
for the work of ministry.
2 Lord, you call us to your service:
“In my name baptize and teach.”
That the world may trust your promise,
life abundant meant for each,
give us all new fervor, draw us
closer in community:
with the Spirit’s gifts empower us
for the work of ministry.
3 Lord, you make the common holy:
“This, my body; this, my blood.”
Let us all, for earth’s true glory,
daily lift life heavenward,
asking that the world around us
share your children’s liberty:
with the Spirit’s gifts empower us
for the work of ministry.
4 Lord, you show us love’s true measure:
“Father, what they do, forgive.”
Yet we hoard as private treasure
all that you so freely give.
May your care and mercy lead us
to a just society:
with the Spirit’s gifts empower us
for the work of ministry.
5 Lord, you bless with words assuring:
“I am with you to the end.”
Faith and hope and love restoring,
may we serve as you intend,
and, amid the cares that claim us,
hold in mind eternity:
