BETHEL MUSIC was formed for the express purpose of creating corridors in the heavenly realms through the mystery of music, that facilitate deeper dimensions of God's manifest presence. His manifold reality inspires worship, ignites revelation and captivates the world.
Therefore the triune mission of BETHEL MUSIC is to:
Adore God through thanksgiving, praise and worship.
Instruct the Church with songs, hymns and spiritual songs.
And enlighten the lost with melodies of mercy.
These foundation stones have been passed down to us for more than five decades and are gaining momentum with each passing generation. Our goal is to honor the core values of our past, build a creative, catalytic culture in the present and leave a legacy for future generations.
The main pillars of BETHEL MUSIC'S core distinctives are:
God is good all the time; in fact He is even better than you can imagine.
The redemptive power of Jesus Christ transformed us from sinners to saints (at conversion), eradicated our sin nature and imparted to us His divine character.
We have been commissioned to carry His glory, make disciples OF ALL nations and bring heaven to earth, until the kingdom's of this world become the Kingdom of our God.
We've been commanded to do greater miracles then Jesus, demonstrate God's superior Kingdom, empower His supernatural people and annihilate the works of the devil.
We embrace a fantastic future, refuse to re-empower a disempowered devil and are determined to leave our children's, children's, children a world in revival.
The practical mandates of BETHEL MUSIC are facilitated through several different avenues:
Our own songwriters group, who are commissioned to create songs and sounds that carry our mission and core values, compose most of our music.
We have several schools through out the year that train, equip and deploy musicians, songwriters and producers to help accomplish our God-given mandate.
BETHEL MUSIC produces, mixes and masters songs and music videos in cooperation with other professionals in different phases of production.
We distribute songs and music videos globally through several venues including partnerships with like-minded distribution companies.
BETHEL MUSIC publishes and manages songs, distributing them through CCLI.
Closing Thoughts:
Our earnest prayer is that BETHEL MUSIC would inspire a revolution that impacts the planet by reforming the Church and transforming the world.
May everything we produce be rooted in His Excellency, be inspired by His creativity and be entrenched in His Divine Nature.
And finally, may the Lord use our music to take you on a Holy Spirit journey into the very heart of God Himself!
We Dance
Bethel Music Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Slow and sweet, we sway
Take the lead and I will follow
Finally ready now
To close my eyes and just believe
That You won't lead me where You don't go
When my faith gets tired
You spin me round and round
And remind me of that song
The one You wrote for me
And we dance
And we dance
And I've been told
To pick up my sword and fight for love
Little did I know that Love had won for me
Here in Your arms
You still my heart again
And I breathe You in like I've never breathed 'till now
When my faith gets tired
And my hope seems lost
You spin me round and round
And remind me of that song
The one You wrote for me
And we dance
Oh, we dance
Oh, oh and we dance
Oh, oh, oh we dance, just You and me
And I will lock eyes
With the One who's ransomed me
The One who gave me joy for mourning
And I will lock eyes
With the One who's chosen me
The One who set my feet to dancing
And I will lock eyes
With the One who's ransomed me
The One who gave me joy for mourning
And I will lock eyes
With the One who's chosen me
The One who set my feet to dancing, oh and we dance
Whoa we dance
And oh we dance, we dance
Oh we dance, just You and me
It's nice to know I'm not alone
I've found my home here in Your arms
It's nice to know I'm not alone
I've found my home here in Your arms
It's nice to know I'm not alone
I've found my home here in Your arms
It's nice to know I'm not alone
I've found my home here in your arms
The song "We Dance" by Bethel Music is a beautifully written love letter to God. The lyrics present a powerful message of complete surrender and trust in Him. The song begins by acknowledging God's constant presence in our lives, even when we feel lost and tired. The singer then expresses their willingness to follow God's lead, to close their eyes and have faith that He won't lead us where He doesn't go. The chorus repeats the phrase "And we dance" as a metaphor for the joy and freedom that comes from being in God's presence.
The second verse introduces the idea that we don't have to fight for God's love because He has already won it for us. The lyrics "Little did I know that Love had won for me, here in Your arms" speak to the depth of God's love and the way it meets us right where we're at. The chorus repeats again, with the added phrase "just You and me" emphasizing the intimacy of our relationship with God.
The bridge brings the song to a moving conclusion with a series of declarations about our identity in Christ. We are ransomed, chosen, and set free to dance in His love. The final verse repeats the chorus, but with a slightly different melody, creating a sense of completeness and resolution to the song.

Who is Jesus to me...
Jesus is fearless, almighty, powerful, forgiving, beautiful
He brings me up when I feel weak
He's the reason I wake up in the mornings and at night fall asleep
He gives me strength through thick and thin,
He accepted me in a world of sin
Who is Jesus to me!
Jesus is the definition of love,
Such love that is over flowing and forgiving
It gives me a purpose for living
Now you asked me who is Jesus to me...
Although words can't express or explain
His name will forever be proclaimed
Jesus!
Such a fresh breath of air
So much power in his name to bare
My savior, my rock, the king,
My lord I give you everything......
Must I say one more time
Who is Jesus to me...
He's the center of it all
Who is Jesus to you?

As a child my dad would abuse me and my mother very badly. This abusue lead me down a terrible path of homosexuality, anger, jealousy. But the love Of Jesus had saved me from alll of this. When i listened to this song all i saw my older self fade away and me as a child crying like how i would when my dad would beat my mom, and then i saw Jesus grab my hand as a little child and started dance with me as a child. I felt so comforted and warm, to know Jesus still cares about that little boy who went through all of that, that he remembers it all and he knows how painful it was. His love comes and washes away all the pain of those memories. His love is greater than anything that has and will ever happen to us. His love knows no ends, it can heal any broken heart. (:
@elithewholeshebang
Yes, and He is near to the brokenhearted (something I'd forgotten until recently)
@jesussavedme6260
Wow, this is a powerful testimony :) Bless you dearly :)
One thing I would say, is to please avoid new age origins, such as listening to subliminal videos. It can open a lot of spiritual doors - no judgement here I just care about you😊
@sarchlalaith8836
There's nothing wrong being gay
@godandsarah1306
Moses Daniel, Thanks for sharing. I'm sad that happened to you. I'm glad Jesus found you. You are precious. God bless.

My Fiance and I have chosen this song for our first dance too. It's been a theme song to my life for a couple years now. And I just so very much love the reality of the words and my life with Jesus. This is where life is done very well. In Dance. With Him!!
