Dance with the King by Joni Ames

IT'S TIME TO DANCE WITH THE KING
a poem by Joni Ames

Its time to dance with the King
Engaged to never part
Embrace Him closely, face to face,
And dance now, heart to heart

Its time to dance with the King
And never look away
In love forever, with a love
That's gaze will never stray

We've danced with the world
And stepped to it's tune
But no one else can love like Him
And cause our heart to swoon

Guard your heart from all but Him
His love is all complete
Dance in His everlasting arms
And let Him guide your feet

Allow His Love to light your path
And lead you in your ways
For only He knows of the road
To lead you from your maze

I see Him reaching out to you
His scepter for this dance
As He says, "Will you dance with me
Inside each circumstance?"

"I'll teach to you the steps and moves
And give you favor, sure,
And promise MY love will not leave
But evermore endure."

"So will you let me take your hand?
Let me, your life, embrace?
Let me, the lifter of your head,
Make all your pain erase?"

"Just follow close now, let ME lead -
Just rest secure from harm
And from this desert I'll lead you
As you lean on My Arm."

"I'll take away the heavy load
That you cannot endure
As I sweep you from evil's grasp
Into My arms, secure."
It's time to dance now, with your King -

The King and Lord of all
Reach out and take His hand today,
Responding to His call.
Its time to dance now with the King
Engaged to never part
Embrace Him closely, face to face,

Dance with Him, heart to heart
Its time to dance with the King
And never look away
In love forever, with a love
fdThat's never more will stray
