[Verse 1]
I danced in the morning when the world had begun
And I danced in the moon and the stars and the sun
I came down from Heaven and I danced on the Earth
At Bethlehem I had my birth

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
'Tis the gift to be simple, 'tis the gift to be free
'Tis the gift to come down where we ought to be
And when we find ourselves in the place just right
'Twill be in the valley of love and delight

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 3]
When true simplicity is gained
To bow and to bend we shan't be ashamed
To turn, to turn will be our delight
'Till by turning we come 'round right
[Chorus]
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

[Verse 4]
I danced in the morning when the world had begun
And I danced in the moon and the stars and the sun
I came down from Heaven and I danced on the Earth
At Bethlehem I had my birth

[Chorus]
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
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

[Outro]
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
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
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
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
Dance, then, wherever you may be
"I am the lord of the dance," said he
