“If you abide in My word,
you are My disciples indeed.
And you shall know the truth,
and the truth shall make you free.”
- John 8:31, 32
I first saw this video on Katie's blog, Hope is Calling.
Something arose in my spirit as I watched it.
The dance was performed by over a thousand dancers at Budapest's public square on Resurrection Sunday 2010.
It is the dance of freedom!
On April 24, 2011 another freedom dance took place, but the videos for that day are still being prepared for global release.
I would have loved to have been a part of this dance!
Take six minutes to watch it, and feel the life pulse through your arteries and veins!
I have also posted the English lyrics to the song based on the Hungarian text by Tamas Pajor.
Resurrection Sunday Dance in Budapest, Hungary
April 4, 2010
Music: Ferenc Balogh Jr.
Lyrics: Shelly Matos, based on the Hungarian text by Tamas Pajor (Tompage)
Refrain 1
That day will be remembered as the greatest day in history
The fate of the world changed in one glorious moment
When Life triumphed on Resurrection Sunday
Verse 1
The hope of a people searching for life
The day will be brighter
The message of freedom rings in the sky
Spreading the fire
The flag of a nation ready to fly
Taking them higher
The heart of a land that rises to fight
Full of desire
When nothing is as you want it to be
Look up to heaven
Freedom was paid for on Calvary
The chain is broken
Making a way right to destiny
Borders are open
And Jesus has granted the victory
That Sunday mornin'
Bridge
Joy in this lifetime, utterly free
More than the world gives, beyond what you see
For nations it's time to rise, their hope is in Jesus Christ
If the giants come, just hold on, the advantage is now on your side
Jesus will take the final fight
Refrain
A light dawned that Sunday Morning it broke through the boundaries of time
Hearts start shining, calling to all mankind
Let's celebrate eternal life
Verse 2
When nothing is as you want it to be
Look up to heaven
Freedom was paid for on Calvary
The chain is broken
Making the way right to destiny
Borders are open
And Jesus has granted the victory
That Sunday mornin
Bridge
Joy in this life time, utterly free
More than the world gives, beyond what you see
For nations it's time to rise, their hope is in Jesus Christ
If the giants come, just hold on, the advantage is now on your side
Jesus will take the final fight
Refrain
A light dawned that Sunday Morning it broke through the boundaries of time
Hearts start shining, calling to all mankind
Let's celebrate eternal life
Rap
When something in you, says you're not through, something whispers, you need to go too
You say that things just can't stay this way, your heart is calling may day may day
World is just trouble, get out of your muddle, jump, now's the time, take your chance on the double.
Leave it behind, you'll see you won't mind, once you meet Jesus the answer you'll find
Don't google your noodle, or consult your poodle, just follow your heart and it will be super
Wake up, see the light, find new life in His life, with Him in sight He’ll take you to new heights
The rescue's begun, now Someone's come, be looking to the sky but not for Air Force One
The way out is up; up up and away, with Jesus today is Independence day
Refrain
Hearts start shining, calling to all mankind
Let's celebrate eternal life
A light dawned that Sunday Morning it broke through the boundaries of time
Hearts start shining, calling to all mankind
Let's celebrate
Let's celebrate
Let's celebrate eternal life
