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
