Verse 1
In my distress I called
Upon You, Lord. You heard me,
And You drew me out of many waters.
When I cried unto You,
You satisfied my longing soul,
And filled my hungry soul with goodness.
Lord, You gave me beauty for my ashes,
The oil of joy for mourning.
Lord, You turned my sorrow into gladness,
And I will sing Your praise forever.

Chorus 1
You have turned for me my mourning into dancing,
Mourning into dancing.
You have turned for me my mourning into dancing,
Mourning into dancing.
You make me want to dance!


Bridge
I will dance before You, Lord, with all of my might,
My heart shall rejoice in Thy salvation.
I will praise Thee, Lord, among the people,
I will sing unto Thee among the nations.
In the day that I cried, You answered me,
Strengthened me with strength in my soul.
I will greatly rejoice in You, O Lord,
My soul shall be joyful in my God.
I will praise, I will praise You, Lord, in the dance;
I will dance before You, Lord, with all of my might.

[Spoken:]
Lord, I wanna dance before You, Lord.
I wanna dance before You, Lord.
I wanna dance before You, Lord. I wanna...
Dance before You, Lord.
I wanna dance before You, Lord.
I wanna dance before You, Lord.
I wanna dance before You.
