Author: Judith Driver, 1965- Hymnal: Hymns for a Pilgrim People #240 (2007) Meter: 8.8.8.7 with refrain First Line: Spirit we open up our hearts Refrain First Line: Dance, dance, dance, let the spirit move you Lyrics: Refrain:
Dance, dance, dance, let the spirit move you,
Dance, dance, dance, moving from within.
Dance, dance, dance, open up your heart to
All the treasure that's within.
1 Spirit we open up our hearts;
Spirit we open them to You;
Show us the way You want to go;
Show us what You want to do. [Refrain]
2 Moving the mountains that we face,
Moving the prejudice and fear,
Moving the callousness and hate
Help us make them disappear. [Refrain]
3 Turning our anger into good,
Turning our hearts to let in love,
Learning to listen to Your call,
Be there when we trip and fall. [Refrain]
4 Freeing the bondage that we've found,
Freeing the prisoners around,
Opening doors we thought were locked,
Letting out the scorned and mocked. [Refrain]
5 Spirit within us, be our guide;
Spirit, You know us from inside;
Calling us now to love and care,
Give us courage that we dare. [Refrain]
6 Celebrate all the Spirit does!
Celebrate all She does with us!
Dance and sing, join us on the way.
Dance and sing with us today! [Refrain] Topics: Freedom; Holy Spirit; Justice; Liberation Scripture: Jeremiah 31:13 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. HILDA
