Song
I love this song because it tells believers in Christ why we have a reason to dance and sing and shout. In fact, "it's the overflow of a forgiven soul"...our natural reaction to God's grace and glory. May our generation be known as one that has laid aside it's pride and taken up the freedom of Jesus Christ.

Lyrics
By: Matt Redman
Your mercy taught us how to dance
To celebrate with all we have
And we'll dance to thank You for mercy

Your glory taught us how to shout
To lift Your name in all the earth
And we'll shout to the praise of Your glory

It's the overflow
Of a forgiven soul
And now we've seen You, God
Our hearts cannot stay silent

AND WE'LL BE A DANCING GENERATION
DANCING BECAUSE OF YOUR GREAT MERCY, LORD
YOUR GREAT MERCY, LORD
AND WE'LL BE A SHOUTING GENERATION
SHOUTING BECAUSE OF YOUR GREAT GLORY, LORD
YOUR GREAT GLORY, LORD
