In the midst of the universe I stand,
Embraced by the Holy Mystery’s hand
The sun’s embrace, so warm and bright,
Bathes the world in golden light.
I drink the sun’s life – giving ray
As trees and grasses feel its sway.
My heart, it leaps with a joyful song,
My feet join in, where rhythms belong.
Creation’s dance unfolds around,
In every pulse, a sacred sound.
The Universe sways, in harmony and grace
The Dance of the Trinity, time can’t erase.
A voice within my heart did call,
“Come and dance with us, embrace it all”.
Outside the circle, I stood alone,
Watching as the dance was shown.
Though all around were lost in glee,
I felt a gap, a mystery
Until I stepped into the ring,
A Dance of joy I yearned to bring
Mindful steps were hear hard to find,
I stumbled, struggled, redefined.
My feet would step on others’ grace,
At times I fell, I lost my place.
Yet in the rhythm, slow and sure,
I found my steps began to cure.
The Dance evolved from deep within,
A flow of grace, a quiet hymn.
From Incarnation to the Cross
To Resurrection, loss and gloss
The Dance of life continues true.
In every breath, in all we do.
In living’s circle and in death
In Divine Mystery’s soft breathe
I found my peace, my joy sincere
Within the dance, both far and near.
Now I invite you to dance with me
In this world where disorder weave,
Together we’ll join the Divine Dance,
In Sacred communion, hearts enhance.
With the Trinity guiding our way,
We partake in Christ’s mission today.
This is our Charism, our spiritual plea.
We step into the circle, zeal and free.
The circle of transformation, we embrace,
In this sacred rhythm, we find our place,
With every movement, every stride,
In the Divine Dance, our souls reside.
