All creation moves in a cosmic danse

Before the Lord her King;

and the rythms, the reason, the rhyme

of the danse pulses within everything.

And the universe wheels and whirls like

a dervish in perfect seven-step time

The Lord made the Danse,

He taught her the steps, and He causes the songs to shine.



We must danse, danse, danse

danse in God's honor.

We must yield all our steps unto the King.

We must danse, danse, danse

danse in God's honor.

Let His praises ring throughout the earth



Adam and Eve dansed in Eden's environs

Early in earth's morning air

They named all the animals musical names

Glorious potentiality shared.

But Lucifer sang out a serpentine song

And offered death's danse as a token.

And pausing to listen Adam missed his step;

Earth's harmony in the danse broken.



We must danse, danse, danse

danse in God's honor.

We must yield all our steps unto the King.

We must danse, danse, danse

danse in God's honor.

Let his praises ring throughout the earth.



Jesus dansed into the world

Singing His heavenly song.

He taught the Danse to those who would

listen and learn as He moved along.

But the steps of His Danse led to a cross

where He died while the haters mocked on.

But He Dansed through death's arms

and over Hell's gate and in three days

dansed forth from His tomb



We must danse, danse, danse

danse in God's honor.

We must yield all our steps unto the King.

We must danse, danse, danse

danse in God's honor.

Let His praises ring throughout the earth (x2)
