Lord of the dance-Hymn

Christ has risen He died for us and now he is back  as he promised. Because he loves us..yes each one of us. No matter what we are ,no matter who we are, no matter where we go, he always lives in us.Happy Easter Guys.
Lord of the dance by St.Patrick's Junior Choir  is going to be my Easter pick. This Christian song takes you through a emotional journey of Jesus' life as mentioned in the gospel .The lyricist of this song,Sydney Carter was inspired to write this song when he saw a status of Lord Shiva (Nataraj) .Being a christian, he pictured a dancing Jesus and wrote down Jesus's story through a song.


Please check 6.48 for Lord of the dance 

English Lyrics:

I danced in the morning when the world was young 
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 

Dance, dance, 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, said he 

I danced for the scribes and the Pharisees 
They wouldn't dance, they wouldn't follow me 
I danced for the fishermen James and John 
They came with me so the dance went on 

Dance, dance, 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, said he 

I danced on the Sabbath and I cured the lame 
The holy people said it was a shame 
They ripped, they stripped, they hung me high 
Left me there on the cross to die 

Dance, dance, 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, said he 

I danced on a Friday when the world 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 goes on 

Dance, dance, 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, said he 

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'll live in me 
I am the Lord of the dance, said he 

Dance, dance, wherever you may be a
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, said he
