In Movement, in Dancing - Poem by Raymond A. Foss

Maybe not in my intellect
understanding the love of God
maybe best in my actions
the way I walk in the world

Something deep within me
deep within my soul
calling my feet to dancing
to dance for joy before the Lord

Oh to be like David
dancing on the road
before the ark, the covenant
its beauty to behold

To imagine I was there
sitting at my master’s feet
hearing his preaching
that all of us would be healed

In movement, in dancing
joy in my creator’s love
singing, dancing
out of the depths of my soul

Only in dancing, praising
letting myself be free
sensing the presence of my savior
for all eternity
