lyrics

If God is present in emptiness, God must be near
And you must be Jesus, Who else would be standing here
In the middle of the night at the edge of the world
Ready to dance with the boys and girls
Holding onto you, holding onto me
All of God's children who want to be free
In the middle of the night at the edge of the world, Let's dance
In the emptiness of life, the beat comes alive, and we dance


If God is present in emptiness, God must be near
And you must be Jesus, Who else would be standing here
In the middle of the night at the edge of the world
Ready to dance with the boys and girls
Holding onto you, holding onto me
All of God's children who want to be free
In the middle of the night at the edge of the world, Let's dance
In the emptiness of life, the beat comes alive, and we dance

If God is present in poverty, God must be poor
If the meek will inherit the earth, God must see more
Than the pearls around the neck and the Mercedes in the drive
God must see the heart that's alive
Power ain't power in a world upside down
the rich folk are living on the wrong side of town
In the middle of the night at the edge of the world, Let's dance
In the emptiness of life, the beat comes alive, and we dance

If God is present in pain, God must have died
Tears must have flowed, broken hearts come alive
Walking down the street bitter and cold
No one to have and no one to hold
Reaching out in love with some strange peace
God is present in the least of these
In the middle of the night at the edge of the world, Let's dance
In the emptiness of life, the beat comes alive, and we dance
