Lyrics

Verse 1


You steady me
Slow and sweet we sway
Take the lead and I will follow


Finally ready now
To close my eyes and just believe
That you won't lead me where you don't go


Chorus


When my faith gets tired
And my hope seems lost
You spin me round and round
And remind me of that song
The one you wrote for me


And we dance
And we dance


Verse 2


I've been told
To pick up my sword
And fight for love
Little did I know
That love had won for me


Here in your arms
You still my heart again
And I breathe you in
Like I've never breathed till now


Chorus (Repeat)


When my faith gets tired
And my hope seems lost
You spin me round and round
And remind me of that song
The one you wrote for me


And we dance
And we dance
And we dance
And we dance
Just you and me


Bridge


And I will lock eyes
With the one who's ransomed me
The one who gave me joy from mourning


And I will lock eyes
With the one who's chosen me
The one who set my feet to dancing


Outro


We dance
Just you and me


It's nice to know
I'm not alone
I've found my home here in your arms

Meaning & Inspiration

"We Dance" uses the image of a dance to describe an intimate, trusting relationship with God rather than a formal act of worship. The opening verse pictures being steadied and led, closing the eyes and trusting the direction being taken, a picture of surrender expressed through movement rather than words. The chorus names discouragement directly, faith growing tired and hope seeming lost, before describing God's response as a spinning dance that recalls an earlier song written specifically for the singer, turning renewal into something playful rather than solemn. A second verse reframes an expectation to fight for love into a discovery that love had already won beforehand, shifting the posture from striving to receiving. The bridge names the reason for that trust directly, describing God as the one who ransomed and chose the singer and turned mourning into joy, borrowing language from a well-known psalm about grief turned to dancing. The closing lines settle on belonging, describing a home found specifically within that relationship rather than any external circumstance.
