Lyrics
- On the bank of a Tennessee river
- In a small Kentucky town
- 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
- I started to dance
- Yeah, I started to dance
- A little boy full of wide-eyed wonder
- Footloose and fancy free
- But it would happen, 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, it said . . .
- I am the heart, I need the heartbeat
- I am the eyes, I need the sight
- I realize that I am just a body
- I need the life
- I move my feet, I go through the motions
- But who'll give purpose to chance
- I am the dancer
- 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
- I am the heart, He is the heartbeat
- I am the eyes, He is the sight
- And I see clearly, I am just a body
- He is the life
- I move my feet, I go through the motions
- But He gives purpose to chance
- I am the dancer
- He is the Lord of the dance
- Lord of the dance
- 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
- I am the heart, You are the heartbeat
- I am the eyes, You are the sight
- And I see clearly, I am just a body
- You are the life
- I move my feet, I go through the motions
- But You give purpose to chance
- I am the dancer
- You are the Lord of the dance
- I am the dancer
- You are the Lord of the dance
