Whirling, spinning
jumping, leaping
up into the chancel
singling, silently
with the song on grace.
Joining us into worship
bringing us with her
into Your presence
centering us in this moment.
Putting her faith in motion
reverently, joyously
dancing for her God
almost, almost as if
we were not there.
Dancing with abandon
whirling, spinning
testifying to Christ
for whom they sang
and for whom she danced.
