                   LORD OF THE DANCE 
                          -Anonymous 
                          recorded by Joe Bethancourt  
                                      "Celtic Circle Dance" 

    She danced on the water, and the wind was Her horn 
    The Lady laughed, and everything was born 
    And when She lit the sun and its light gave Him birth 
    The Lord of the Dance first appeared on the Earth 

(Chorus): Dance, dance, where ever you may be 
          I am the Lord of the Dance, you see! 
          I live in you, and you live in Me 
          And I lead you all in the Dance, said He! 

  * I danced in the morning when the World was begun 
    I danced in the Moon and the Stars and the Sun 
    I was called from the Darkness by the Song of the Earth 
    I joined in the Song, and She gave Me the Birth! 

    I dance in the Circle when the flames leap up high 
    I dance in the Fire, and I never, ever, die 
    I dance in the waves of the bright summer sea 
    For I am the Lord of the wave's mystery 

    I sleep in the kernel, and I dance in the rain 
    I dance in the wind, and thru the waving grain 
    And when you cut me down, I care nothing for the pain; 
    In the Spring I'm the Lord of the Dance once again! 

  * I dance at the Sabbat when you dance out the Spell 
    I dance and sing that everyone be well 
    And when the dancing's over do not think that I am gone 
    To live is to Dance! So I dance on, and on! 

  * I see the Maidens laughing as they dance in the Sun 
    And I count the fruits of the Harvest, one by one 
    I know the Storm is coming, but the Grain is all stored 
    So I sing of the Dance of the Lady, and Her Lord: 

    The Horn of the Lady cast its sound 'cross the Plain 
    The birds took the notes, and gave them back again 
    Till the sound of Her music was a Song in the sky 
    And to that Song there is only one reply: 

    The moon in her phases, and the tides of the sea 
    The movement of the Earth, and the Seasons that will be 
    Are the rhythm for the dancing, and a promise thru the years 
    That the Dance goes on thru all our joy, and tears 

  * We dance ever slower as the leaves fall and spin 
    And the sound of the Horn is the wailing of the wind 
    The Earth is wrapped in stillness, and we move in a trance, 
    But we hold on fast to our faith in the Dance! 

  * The Sun is in the Southland and the days lengthen fast 
    And soon we will sing for the Winter that is past 
    Now we light the candles and rejoice as they burn 
    And we dance the Dance of the Sun's return! 

    They danced in the darkness and they danced in the night 
    They danced on the Earth, and everything was light 
    They danced out the Darkness and they danced in the Dawn 
    And the Day of that Dancing is still going on! 

    I gaze on the Heavens and I gaze on the Earth 
    And I feel the pain of dying, and re-birth 
    And I lift my head in gladness, and in praise  
    For the Dance of the Lord, and His Lady gay 

  (repeat verse 1)
