JUDAH. - And We Dance Lyrics
Lyrics
You draw me in so sweet
And you grab my hand and take the lead
And I begin to stumble over my feet
And your eyes meet mine so gently
I fall into your arms
I fall into your arms
And we dance
Oh, and we dance
My heart is beating like a child
And the fire down in me is going wild
My love, my love, my love this is all that I wanted
Oh, my love, my love, my love I'm saved in a moment
I fall into your arms
I fall into your arms
Oh, and we dance
Oh, and we dance
Oh, and we dance
Oh, and we dance
And we dance

Meaning & Inspiration
Released on May 7, 2021, JUDAH.'s "And We Dance" offers a profound exploration of finding solace and transformation through a divine encounter. While the song's lyrics paint a picture of surrender and exhilaration, the underlying narrative resonates deeply with themes of spiritual awakening and redemption found throughout Scripture. The imagery of being drawn in "so sweet" and taken by the "lead" immediately evokes the gentle, persistent call of God, much like the Psalmist proclaimed, "The LORD is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth" (Psalm 145:18). This initial drawing in leads to a beautiful surrender, a moment where earthly concerns and self-consciousness fade away as the individual "fall[s] into your arms." This act of falling, not in defeat but in trust, mirrors the biblical call to humble oneself before God, as is commanded in James 4:10: "Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up." The heart's response, beating "like a child" and a "fire down in me is going wild," speaks to the uninhibited joy and passionate love that erupts when one fully embraces God's presence. This is the very essence of divine love that sets us free, as 1 John 4:18 reminds us, "There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love." The declaration, "this is all that I wanted," and the profound statement, "I'm saved in a moment," encapsulate the profound relief and fulfillment that comes with recognizing God's saving grace. This is not merely a fleeting emotional experience, but a deep spiritual realization that echoes the transformative power of accepting Christ, much like Paul's testimony in Galatians 2:20: "I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. And the life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me." The repeated refrain, "And we dance," signifies the celebration and liberation that accompany this newfound relationship with the divine. It's a dance of gratitude, of freedom from sin and despair, and of joyful communion. This imagery of dancing in God's presence is not new; it is a recurring theme of praise and thanksgiving in the Psalms, where David famously danced before the Ark of the Covenant (2 Samuel 6:14). "And We Dance" ultimately serves as an anthem for those who have experienced God's drawing power, who have found refuge in His embrace, and who now move with newfound joy and purpose in His love, a testament to the living, breathing reality of faith.
