"Dance with Me"
I just wrote this one, especially dedicated to you.
-- Mary Ann Nguyen
There is a time to mourn and a time to dance. Ecc 3:4He's turned my mourning
into dancing again
He's lifted my sorrow
with His comforting hand.
Even a fool like me will choose to dance
though I don't know how
Would you care to dance with me
and could we do it now?
Can we take off in a run
and twirl on the street
Can we waltz and skip and laugh
and bow to all we meet?
Let's not keep it to ourselves
but invite everyone along
Let's have crowds and crowds
dancing and singing a new song
For He has made me glad
He has made me glad
I will rejoice
for there's no reason to be sad!
So would you dance
come dance with me
throw off those burdens
and join my glee
Dance with me
won't you have a dance?
The Lord, the King
gave us a second chance!
So let us dance
let us skip
Let us bow
let us worship
For He is King -
Jesus is King,
Our Lord, the Savior.
So let's dance and sing.

Yay, first comment! Thanks for sharing your poetry with the world, Mary Ann. Sublime inspiration, to borrow a phrase. God is indeed worth of out-bursts of praise. Thanks for often reminding me of how trustworthy He is in real life.
awww...so good, Mary Ann! Praising and dancing with our Lord Jesus is sooo much fun! blessings.
LOVE IT!!! Esp. since I love to dance and praise God! Thanks!
so... does this mean that you'll be following the lead of your sis and your parents and actually set your feet on the dance floor now? (maybe if we can get nick to join along) =p thanks for sharing this. Eccl is one of my favorite books of the bible also.
sweet! now.. if you could just sing and record it as an mp3 or wav and play it in the background...:)
