I am dancing on the day that the Lord has made
I am dancing in this way 'cause I have heard it said
That the children of the Lord should sing and play and dance in His presence
And I am acting like a fool in the eyes of men
But I'm an educated fool and I have learned that when
I lay down my defenses I can sing and play and dance in His presence
Chorus
In His presence there's a joy, there's a sweet release
Where grown men become boys with a brand new lease
On this life that is a gift from a Father to His son
An inheritance of love where all that's ever said and done
Is in His presence where guilt and shame have no place
Where the children are forgiven and they finally see His face
And all that they can do is sing to Him -- sing and play and dance in His presence
