lord of the dance
Singer:steven curtis chapman
on the bank of the tennessee river
i drew my first breath one cold november morning
and before my feet even touched the ground
with the doctors and the nurses gathered 'round
a little boy full of wide-eyed wonder
as it does for every dancer
that i'd stumble on a truth i couldn't see
and find a longing deep inside of me
i realize that i am just a body
but who'll give purpose to chance
i need the lord of the dance
the world beneath us spins in circles
and this life makes us twist and turn and sway
but we were made for more than rhythm with no reason
by the one who moves with passion and with grace
as he dances over all that he has made
but he gives purpose to chance
he is the lord of the dance
and while the music of his love and mercy plays
i will fall down on my knees and i will pray
but you give purpose to chance
you are the lord of the dance
you are the lord of the dance
