1. Lord of the Dance DI danced in the morning when the world was begun, Em AAnd I danced in the moon and the stars and the sun. DI came down from heaven and I danced on the earth. Em A G DAt Bethlehem I had my birth.

Refrain: DDance, dance wherever you may be. Em AI am the Lord of the dance said He. DAnd I’ll lead you all wherever you may be. Em A G D (Em A G D)And I’ll lead you all in the dance, said He.

I danced for the scribe and the pharisee,But they would not dance and they wouldn’t follow me.I danced for the fishermen, for James and John.They came with me and the dance went on.

I danced on the Sabbath and I cured the lame.The holy people said it was a shame.They whipped and they stripped and they hung me high,And they left me there on a cross to die.

I danced on a Friday when the sky turned black.It’s hard to dance with the devil on your back.They buried my body and they thought I was gone,But I am the dance and I still go on.

They cut me down but I leaped up high,For I am the dance that can never, never die.I’ll live in you if you’ll live in me,For I am the Lord of the dance said he!

No longer strangers to each other,No longer strangers in God’s house,We are fed and we are nourished,By the strength of those who care, (2x)

We have been gifted with each other,And we are called by the word of the Lord,To act with justice, to love tenderly,To walk humbly with our God, (2x)

We will seek and we will find,We will knock and the door will be opened,We will ask and it shall be given,For we believe in the love of our God, (2x)

We are made for the glory of God,For service in the name of Jesus,To walk side by side with hope in our hearts,For we believe in the love of our God, (2x)

4. The Servant Song D G AWill you let me be your servant? D G ALet me be as Christ to you; G D G APray that I may have the grace to, G A A7 DLet you be my servant, too.

We are pilgrims on a journey,We are travellers on the road;We are here to help each other,Walk the mile and bear the load.

I will hold the Christ light for you,In the nighttime of your fear;I will hold my hand out to you,Speak the peace you long to hear,

I will weep when you are weeping;When you laugh I’ll laugh with you.I will share your joy and sorrow,‘Til we’ve seen this journey through.

When we sing to God in heaven,We shall find such harmony,Born of all we’ve known together,Of Christ’s love and agony.

Will you let me be your servant?Let me be as Christ to you;Pray that I may have the grace to,Let you be my servant, too.

5. Song of Community(capo 2) C Am F CWe’ll weave a love that greens sure as spring, Em Am Dm GThen deepens in summer to the fall autumn brings, C Em F CResting still in winter to spiral again, F C G CTogether, my friends, we’ll weave on, we’ll weave on.

Refrain: Am EmA love that heals, friend, that bends friend, F C GThat rising and turning then yields, friend. Am Em FLike the mountain to rain or frost in the spring, C Em AmOr darkness that turns with the dawn, C Em Am FIt’s by turning, turning, turning, my friend, C F CBy turning that love moves on.

We’ll weave a love that opens our eyes,To see one another beyond all disguise,Where our trust like water will wash away lies,Together, my friends, we’ll weave on, we’ll weave on.

We’ll weave a love that touches our pain,That comes like the water to drought-fevered plains,So the roots, once withered, sing praise to the rain,Together, my friends, we’ll weave on, we’ll weave on.

We’ll weave a love that holds the despised,The stranger who wanders, the focus of lies,We’ll stand sure as mountains with Earth’s victimized,Together, my friends, we’ll weave on, we’ll weave on.

We’ll weave a love with roots growing deep,And sap pushing branches to wake from their sleep,Bearing leaves burnt amber with morning’s full sweep,Together, my friends, we’ll weave on, we’ll weave on.

6. Simple Gifts D‘Tis a gift to be simple, ‘tis a gift to be free, Em A‘Tis a gift to come down where we ought to be. DAnd when we find ourselves in the place just right, Em A G D‘Twill be in the valley of love and delight.

DWhen true simplicity is gained, Em ATo bow and to bend we will not be ashamed. DTo turn, turn will be our delight, Em A G D (Em A G D)‘Til by turning, turning we come ‘round right.

The earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof,Its streets, its slums, as well as stars above.Salvation is here where we laugh, where we cry,Where we seek and love, where we live and die.

When true liberty is found,By fear and by hate we will no more be bound,In love and in life we will find a new birth,In peace and in freedom redeem the earth.

7. How Could Anyone Ever Tell You?(capo 0-3)

(from D) G C D GHow could anyone ever tell you, you were anything less than beautiful? Em A D D7How could anyone ever tell you, you were less than whole? G C D GHow could anyone fail to notice that your loving is a miracle? Em A DHow deeply you’re connected to my soul.

11. Pilgrims TogetherRefrain (capo 5): C G AmNo longer strangers but pilgrims together, F GCalled to be woven like threads on the loom, G AmDrawn by the one God who thirsts for communion, F G AmCalled by the piper, called by the tune,

C G CThough we come from many nations, C G CAnd our faith has many names, F CAcross oceans, over mountains, GOn these paths of peace we came,

C G CTo be together in the walking, C G CIn the resting in the meal, Am FAnd when the blessed breath of evening comes, G CAs one the pilgrims kneel,

We know our thirst for God is a blessing,We know our hunger is not a curse,We know our emptiness is sacred room,And the last shall be first,

We are lovers of communion,We are building with our clay,A house for God to dwell with us,Let us be the house we pray,

Every thread that’s sewn is different,There are no two quite the same,And all the colours make strange rainbows,God’s promises made plain,

We submit to the great weaver,Let our pattern be the weaver’s refrain,Our God the God of difference,Calls each of us by name,

Lord, make me a means of your peace.Where there’s doubt and fear, let me sow your faith.In this world’s despair, give me hope in you to share.Lord, make me a means of your peace.

Refrain: G DOh Master, grant that I may never seek, A DSo much to be consoled as to console, G DTo be understood as to understand, E ATo be loved as to love with all my soul.

Make me a channel of your peace.Where there’s despair in life let me bring hope.Where there is darkness, only light,And where there’s sadness, ever joy.

Make me a channel of your peace.It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,In giving to all people we receive,And in dying that we’re born to eternal life.

16. Come and Find the Quiet Centre (capo 3) C (Dm C) Am F CCome and find the quiet centre in the crowded life we lead, (Dm C) Am F CFind the room for hope to enter, find the frame where we are freed, C G Am Em C FClear the chaos and the clutter, clear our eyes, that we can see, G Am F C Dm (Em) F CAll the things that really matter, be at peace, and simply be,

Silence is a friend who claims us, cools the heat and slows the pace,God it is who speaks and names us, knows our being, face to face,Making space within our thinking, lifting shades to show the sun,Raising courage when we’re shrinking, finding scope for faith begun,

In the Spirit let us travel, open to each other’s pain,Let our loves and fears unravel, celebrate the space we gain,There’s a place for deepest dreaming, there’s a time for heart to care,In the Spirit’s lively scheming there is always room to spare!

17. I Lift My Eyes to the Quiet Hills(capo 2) C Dm G E7 AmI lift my e---yes to the quiet hi-----lls, F A7 Dm GIn the press of a busy da-----y,

Am7 F C C7 FAs green hills stand in a dusty land, E7 F G7 CSo Go-d is my strength and stay,

DThrough all the tumult and the strife, AI hear its music ringing, D GIt sounds an echo in my soul,

D A DHow can I keep from singing?

What though the tempest loudly roars,I hear the truth, it liveth,What though the darkness ‘round me close,Songs in the night it giveth,

No storm can shake my inmost calm,While to that rock I’m clinging,Since Love is Lord of heaven and earth,How can I keep from singing?

When tyrants tremble, sick with fear,And hear their death-knells ringing,When friends rejoice both far and near,How can I keep from singing?

In prison cell and dungeon vile,Our thoughts to them are winging,When friends by shame are undefiled,How can I keep from singing?

I lift my eyes, the cloud grows thin,I see the blue above it,And day by day this pathway clears,Since first I learned to love it,

The peace of God restores my soul,A fountain ever springing,All things are mine since I am loved;How can I keep from singing?

Ouvrir quand tu frappes à la porte,Briser les verrous de la peur.Savoir tout ce que tu m’apportes,Rester et devenir meilleur.

This is the sound of one voice,One people, one voice,A song for every one of us,This is the sound of one voice.

Moon over junk yard where the snow lies bright,Snow lies bright, snow lies bright, Moon over junk yard where the snow lies bright,Can set my heart to burn

Infinity always gives me vertigo,Vertigo, vertigo, Infinity always gives me vertigo,And fills me up with grace,

I was built on a Friday and you can't fix me,You can't fix me, you can't fix me, I was built on a Friday and you can't fix me,Even so I've done okay,

And don't tell me there is no mystery,Mystery, mystery, And don't tell me there is no mystery,It overflows my cup,

This feast of beauty can intoxicate,Intoxicate, intoxicate, This feast of beauty can intoxicate,Just like the finest wine,

So all you stumblers who believe love rules,Believe love rules, believe love rules, Come all you stumblers who believe love rules,Stand up and let it shine, (2x)

Old men will see their visions,Young men will dream their dreams,Women will be our prophets,With children in the lead,

Dancer of all creation,Singer of living song,Beauty from days eternal,The praise of a living God,

We struggle as one for freedom,Our heartbeat the Spirit’s song,Together in pain and gladness,Ancient our dance and song,
