Working on the main riff the words Dancin with the Lord sprang into my head. Then I thought about how to extend the metaphor.

DANCIN' WITH THE LORD

Early in the mornin' at the the break of dawn
I jump outta bed, put my dancin' shoes on
My toes start a-tappin' to the rhythm of the day
I do shoft-shoe-shuffle and chase the blues away
The music in my head strikes a jazzy chord
Well glory hallelujah! I'm dancin' with the Lord

I'm Dancin' with the Lord X4
The two step, rhumba or rock'n'roll jive
I'm dancin' with the Lord just be because I'm alive!

Well I dance through the day and into the night
I'm waltzin'on air, I'm trippin' the light
I don't need a partner, I can dance on my own
But it takes two to tango so get you dancin' shoes on
People just stare at me, they don't say a word
I say "Come on and join me, I'm dancin' with the Lord"

CHRS (see above)

I'm Dancin' with the Lord X4
The two step, rhumba or rock'n'roll jive
I'm dancin' with the Lord just be because I'm alive!


Slow dance, fast dance or standin' in line
No matter how you're dancin', you're doin' just fine
Jesus don't mind, He'll just go with the flow
Just tap him on the shoulder, He'll never say no
You can dance with a ribbon, a flame or a sword
it don't really matter if you're dancin' with the Lord

Chrs to fade
