Song And Dance

David's on his throne at sundown

His paper and his pen are in his hand

He's waiting on a song at sundown

As he gazes out across his holy land

And he thinks of old Goliath and he smiles

He can barely keep from laughing

He says, "great is the Lord and greatly to be praised"

He can hear the rivers clapping

Well, they're still clapping

To the same old song and dance

Well the cadence of the sea is just as steady

And the chorus of the hills is just as strong

And the faithfulness of God is just as mighty as it was

When the shepherd slew the giant with a stone

You can close your eyes and listen to the sea

You can feel the holy rhythm

Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised

For the mercy he has given

Well, he's still giving

It's the same old song and dance

I can hear creation singing his praise

That his love is everlasting

It's the same as it was a million years ago

I can still hear David laughing

And the rivers are still clapping

It's the same old song and dance
