Lyrics

[00:00.100] Lord of the Dance - The Dubliners
[00:00.570] I danced in the morning when the world was young
[00:03.420] I danced in the moon and the stars and the sun
[00:05.890] I came down from Heaven and I danced on the Earth
[00:08.640] At Bethlehem I had my birth
[00:11.220] Dance then wherever you may be
[00:13.639] I am the lord of the dance said he
[00:16.59] And I lead you all wherever you may be
[00:18.509] And I lead you all in the dance said he
[00:21.298] I danced for the Pharoah and the pharisees
[00:23.778] They wouldn't dance they wouldn't follow me
[00:26.288] I danced for the fishermen James and John
[00:28.888] They came with me so the dance went on
[00:31.458] Dance then wherever you may be
[00:33.998] I am the lord of the dance said he
[00:36.467] And I lead you all wherever you may be
[00:39.07] And I lead you all in the dance said he
[00:41.666] I danced on the Sabbath and I cured the lame
[00:44.505] The holy people said it was a shame
[00:46.775] They ripped me and they stripped me and they hung me high
[00:49.365] Left me there on the cross to die
[00:51.905] Dance then wherever you may be
[00:54.504] I am the lord of the dance said he
[00:56.864] And I lead you all wherever you may be
[00:59.454] And I lead you all in the dance said he
[01:22.124] I danced on a friday when the world turned black
[01:24.644] It's hard to dance with the devil on your back
[01:27.234] They buried my body they thought I was gone
[01:29.554] But I am the dance and the dance goes on
[01:32.283] Dance then wherever you may be
[01:34.892] I am the lord of the dance said he
[01:37.342] And I lead you all wherever you may be
[01:39.712] And I lead you all in the dance said he
[01:42.641] They cut me down and I leapt up high
[01:45.11] I am the life that will never never die
[01:47.561] I'll live in you if you'll live in me
[01:50.51] I am the Lord of the dance said he
[01:52.882] Dance dance wherever you may be
[01:55.182] I am the lord of the dance said he
[01:57.682] And I lead you all wherever you may be
[02:00.412] And I lead you all in the dance said he
