Dance with Me
I'm sitting here with you
Down by the river
I watch you scrub your skin raw
Trying to make yourself clean
Of all the things
That you have done wrong
That have done you wrong
Remember we were here, last year
In this very spot
You were dead and went under that river
Born alive when I brought you back up
White as snow, white as snow
And you are lovelier than all
My stars in the sky
Your beauty cannot be
Taken by the night
The lock has been broken off
Darling, why are you wearing
Those chains?
Take them off, grab my arms
Come dance with grace
Dance with Me
Your mind is taking you captive
It's playing reruns of your past
And then I call
You reach your hand out for Me
Your eyes are still looking back
But no more, no more
Let go of what has a hold
On your soul
My payment for you was
Once and for all
And when my son said,
"It is finished"
I can guarantee He meant it
And it is done, it is done
And you are lovelier than all
My stars in the sky
Your beauty cannot be
Taken by the night
The lock has been broken off
Darling, why are you wearing
Those chains?
Take them off, grab my arms
Come and dance with grace
Dance with Me
And this mark that I've come
To make on your heart
Will forever outlive those scars
On your arms
Fully known, and fully loved
Fully known, and fully loved
You're white as snow, set free
Why are you wearing those
Empty chains?
That ones that try and tell you
Your name
I know your name
And that is not your name
So if you know what I did to
Break that lock
How could you still wear
Those chains?
Please taken them off
And grab My arms, darling
Come and dance with
Come dance with Me
Down by the river
I watch you scrub your skin raw
Trying to make yourself clean
Of all the things
That you have done wrong
That have done you wrong
Remember we were here, last year
In this very spot
You were dead and went under that river
Born alive when I brought you back up
White as snow, white as snow
And you are lovelier than all
My stars in the sky
Your beauty cannot be
Taken by the night
The lock has been broken off
Darling, why are you wearing
Those chains?
Take them off, grab my arms
Come dance with grace
Dance with Me
Your mind is taking you captive
It's playing reruns of your past
And then I call
You reach your hand out for Me
Your eyes are still looking back
But no more, no more
Let go of what has a hold
On your soul
My payment for you was
Once and for all
And when my son said,

I can guarantee He meant it
And it is done, it is done
And you are lovelier than all
My stars in the sky
Your beauty cannot be
Taken by the night
The lock has been broken off
Darling, why are you wearing

Take them off, grab my arms
Come and dance with grace
Dance with Me
And this mark that I've come
To make on your heart
Will forever outlive those scars

Fully known, and fully loved
You're white as snow, set free
Why are you wearing those
Empty chains?
That ones that try and tell you

I know your name
And that is not your name
So if you know what I did to
Break that lock
How could you still wear
Those chains?
Please taken them off
And grab My arms, darling
Come and dance with
Come dance with Me
