    Since 1962, The Dubliners have been enthralling audiences worldwide with their music and song. The strength and attractiveness of The Dubliners has always been in the personalities of the musicians who have made up this boisterous band of balladeers, from original members, Ronnie Drew, Barney McKenna, Luke Kelly, Ciarán Bourke, John Sheahan and Bob Lynch to the arrival at different stages of Jim McCann, Seán Cannon, Eamonn Campbell and finally the peerless Paddy Reilly.
    Produced By: David Donaghy
    Sound Engineer: Brian Nartey

    About 15 years ago, I was in a Christian university, working towards a degree in theology. In one my courses, Spiritual Formation, my Professor introduced us to this song. It was a favorite of his.
    And ever since, it has been a favorite of mine as well. I love how well this song communicates the free & whimsical side of Jesus. Too often we paint pictures of Christ in a somber, broken, or dying portrait.
    My favorite artwork of Christ is of Him laughing, the work was done in 1973 by Willis Wheatley. Just as that art so beautifully conveyed the joyful side of Christ, I believe this song does as well- just via a different medium.
    If the joy of the Lord is our strength, we really ought to allow ourselves more time to experience His joy.

      To be fair, it’s not even really a Christian song. The author wrote it about of trig the incarnations of Shiva, a Hindu god. The author was surprised that Christian churches started playing it. He said “I thought people would find it heretical”

    I danced in the morning
    When the world was begun,
    And I danced in the moon
    And the stars and the sun,
    And I came down from heaven
    And I danced on the earth,
    At Bethlehem
    I had my birth.
    Dance, then, wherever you may be,
    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
    And the pharisee,
    But they would not dance
    And they wouldn't follow me.
    I danced for the fishermen,
    For James and John
    They came with me
    And the Dance went on.
    Dance, then, wherever you may be,
    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 on the Sabbath
    And I cured the lame;
    The holy people
    Said it was a shame.
    They whipped and they stripped
    And they hung me on high,
    And they left me there
    On a Cross to die.
    Dance, then, wherever you may be,
    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 on a Friday
    When the sky turned black
    It's hard to dance
    With the devil on your back.
    They buried my body
    And they thought I'd gone,
    But I am the Dance,
    And I still go on.
    Dance, then, wherever you may be,
    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
    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.

    Probably the only song which captures the Christ I read of in the gospels .
    Haughty as well as modest, proud and humble, defiant and pious.
    Full of love and invitation. You hear very little of this from mainstream Christianity. This song is true to the gospels.
