3) Lord of the Dance

I danced in the morning when the world was begun

I danced in the Moon & the Stars & the Sun

I came down from Heaven & I danced on Earth

At Bethlehem I had my birth:

(CHORUS)

Dance then, wherever you may be (get up and dance!)

I am the Lord of the Dance, said He!

And I'll lead you all, wherever you may be

And I'll lead you all in the Dance, said He!

I danced for the scribe & the Pharisee

But they would not dance & they wouldn't follow me

I danced for fishermen, for James & John

They came with me & the Dance went on: (CHORUS)

I danced on the Sabbath & I cured the lame

The holy people said it was a shame!

They whipped & they stripped & they hung me high

And they left me there on a cross to die! (CHORUS)

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 & they thought I'd gone

But I am the Dance & I still go on! (CHORUS)

They cut me down and I leapt up high

I am the Life that'll never, never die!

I'll live in you if you'll live in Me -

I am the Lord of the Dance, said He! (CHORUS)

4) I am a “C”

7) Create in Me a Clean Heart

Create in me a clean heart

O Lord

And renew a right spirit within me

(repeat)

Create in me a clean heart

O Lord

And renew a right spirit within me

Cast me not away

From Thy presence O Lord

And take not the Holy Spirit from me

Restore unto me

The joy of Your salvation

And renew a right spirit within me

8) Seek Ye First

Seek Ye first the Kingdom of God

and His righteousness

then all these things shall be added unto you

Allelu, alleluia

Man does not live by bread alone

But by every word

That proceeds from the mouth of God

Allelu, alleluia

Ask and it shall be given unto you

Seek and ye shall find

Knock and the door shall be opened unto you

Allelu, alleluia

9) Amazing Grace Lyrics

"Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,

That saved a wretch like me....

I once was lost but now am found,

Was blind, but now, I see.

T'was Grace that taught...

my heart to fear.

And Grace, my fears relieved.

How precious did that Grace appear...

the hour I first believed.

Through many dangers, toils and snares...

we have already come.

T'was Grace that brought us safe thus far...

and Grace will lead us home.

The Lord has promised good to me...

His word my hope secures.

He will my shield and portion be...

as long as life endures.

When we've been here ten thousand

years...

bright shining as the sun.

We've no less days to sing God's praise...

then when we've first begun.

"Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,

That saved a wretch like me....

I once was lost but now am found,

Was blind, but now, I see.

9) Rejoice Theotokos

O Theotokos, and Virgin

The Lord is with you

Blessed are you among women

And blessed is the fruit of your womb

For you have brought forth the Savior

of our world

10) Rich Men (Artoclasia)

Rich men have turned poor

and gone hungry

But they who seek the Lord

Shall not be deprived

Of any good thing

[GREEK]

Πλουσιοι επτωχευσαν και επεινασαν

οιδε εκζητουντες τον Κυριον

ουκ ελαττωθησονται

παντος αγαθου

11) Baptized Into Christ (Baptism)

As many as have been baptized

in to Christ

Have put on Christ

Alleluia

Οσοι εις Χριστον εβαπτισθητε

Χριστον ενεδυσασθε, Αλλελουια
