We Dance
Steffany Frizzell Gretzinger Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You steady me
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
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
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

Overall Meaning

The song "We Dance" by Steffany Frizzell Gretzinger serves as a beautiful declaration of surrender and trust in God. The lyrics talk about how God has steadily guided and led the singer to a point of readiness and belief in His ways. The singer acknowledges that at times, her faith may grow tired, but the constant reminder of God's love and the song that He has written for her encourages her to just freely dance with Him. The song talks about the beautiful exchange that happens when we allow ourselves to be vulnerable with God and just be still in His presence. The singer talks about locking eyes with the One who has ransomed and chosen her, the One who has brought joy in her life and set her feet to dance.


The lyrics also express how fighting for love is not necessary when we already have won Love in God. Surrendering to God allows us to find our home and security in His arms. It expresses how the best thing we can do when faced with trials and uncertainties in life is to acclimatize ourselves to submission and confidence in God.

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.

@mmj9395

A beautiful and powerful testimony brother. Glory to God.

Fiancé and I just picked this for our First Dance. we want our marriage to reflect the relationship between Christ and the church bride and to glorify Him. I cant think of a better song to start it off with.

@CaseyWillers

@jamesgoodwin7537

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!!
