Dance is Jesus Thoughts Turned to Music

Sweet Lord, 

I want to dance 

Your grace tonight. 

I want to dance the song 

that is in my being 

to the lifting of my soul.  

Actions that lock me down, 

be released 

to follow not after my own good 

but with the Name I love 

upon my lips 

for who You are forever more.  

Jesus, see my eyes dancing 

with my gaze turned 

to include my smile 

as my thoughts become music 

I respond to.  

As the beauty of what I hear 

keeps my moves rising, 

I hold the power of this kingdom 

running its aroma 

to fill me body, soul, and spirit. 

Your love kisses 

my emotions 

to assure my dance is enjoyed 

as You seek the earth 

for those joining in truth 

to declare this perfect song.  

Skipping my feet 

with the run 

of a million sounds about me, 

I dance to a few here and there 

that speak love to my ears.  

Grabbing paths that connect all things 

to the center of this attraction, 

the Lord Jesus Christ, 

I stop to breath in such a sight.  

I fold my hands about my chest 

and open them upward 

to dance my vow 

to love You forever 

with all that I can 

and as often as I might.  

The stereo of blended tunes 

bless the stage of this worship dance 

formed from thoughts of Jesus.  

Tears shine upon sparkled dance floors 

as servants breaks chains 

and join the dance 

that comes from death to life.  

Hear the music, 

the sounds of His Name 

from the core of hearts 

surrendering to the forever God.  

See the dance of saints 

as beauty floats 

from their mouth 

and bounces from soul to soul.  

Songs of what Jesus has done 

spring forth 

and its melody causes feet to dance.  

A mighty roar waves about the sky 

as it holds tremendous power of praise.   

Hearts forget themselves 

and become focused 

on what is pouring from Father’s heart.  

Dancing is a response 

from Jesus thoughts 

turned into music.
