    My favorite verse I learned differently. It went: "I danced on the Friday when the sky turned black. It's hard to dance with the Devil on your back. They murdered me and they thought I'd gone. But I am The Dance and I still go on." To me this is a bit more "powerful" than the verse here, which seems to be standard.

    I love the tempo of this rendition of the song. Many times I've heard it sung in churches and because of the pace and tone the song becomes depressing and seems to focus on death. To me this version celebrates the life of Christ.

Thank you Jesus, your love is everlasting to everlasting.

Thanks to this video, I've just sung it (very enthusiastically 😆) once again. ❤

    I woke singing this when I read Luke 7:31 - 35, they try their tricks to make God do what they want but HE will never lower Himself to their demands! Vs. 32 Just like so many (even in churches) try to make Jesus perform for them, He never will! [I AM THE LORD of the dance said HE. ] HE alone is in total control, trust HIM! Give your heart and all your desires to HIM, He will lead you to amazing places. HIS plan is so much better than yours! Blessings!

    It's so interesting to watch how God works in people's lives. I had a lot of trauma in my youth and remember singing the chorus of this song quite frequently, though I didn't know the verses or tied it to Christianity. It wasn't until I was in my mid-40s that I learned the full meaning of the song. To think that God had planted it as a seed to help me through such a very difficult life is dumbfounding. God is so good to me!

Never heard it again after that time. I'm 42 years old now and even now, from time to time the lyrics of this dance through my mind. No pun intended. Glad I was able to find it again.🥰

    This was my Tanche's favourite hymn after Abide With Me + Oh Men of Harlech. We sang the first two at Bushbury Crem at his funeral. Still cry today with a smile 😊

    You need to follow step by step to understand
    1) A Christian friend said God wants to heal my heart
    2) Monday is the first working day (Alpha)
    3) Friday (today) is the last working day (Omega)
    4) two nurses told me two different BP readings from Monday but neither are what I remember hearing that day: 170/170
    170 = God's perfect timing
    5) five working days in a week
    5 = God's children
    Here's how it ties together:
    God has been working on me, his child, this week.
    Current BP 119/68 LOL

    Read the annotation okay. Was just adding what I knew of the song from a little research I'd done on it. Not being critical :) And you're right - a very good song and I love the instrumental work on this version. Good job.

      @hyenaedits3460  6 лет назад

      I didn't make the song but I'm glad you like this version. It's my favorite version of the song and I wanted to share it with people. Sorry if I sounded defensive, that was not my intention.

    After I heard this version the song is great but now I know what was missing... Irish dancers in the background. Sorted!

  • @sharonmills3064
    @sharonmills3064 2 года назад +4

    But you missed an important verse! Part of it is:
    I danced in the morning when the sky turned black,
    it's hard to dance with the devil on your back,
    They whipped and they stripped and they hung me on high,
    And left me there on a cross to die.
    They buried my body and they thought I'd gone,
    But i am the dance and I still go on...

      I not religious as such, and listen to heavy metal music,but this is the first song that I heard at primary school that made me feel happy and want to dance, I thought the words were "I am the Lord of the dance settee". My mother never knew why any time music played I would jump on the couch! Still makes me happy at 62! Never realised lyrics till now. May be still hope for me

    This is one of my favorite songs! We sang this in adult choir at church. The melody is a sped up version of “Simple Gifts”, I think.

    My strict religious boarding school brought me here.... way back. Some how this was in the psalm book in upstate New York.
    Sounds much better with Irish Singers.
