OPENER Basic - SSD Week 4
Sides face grand square
*I wandered so aimless life filled with sin
I wouldn't let my dear Savior in
Then Jesus came like a stranger in the night
Praise the Lord
Allemande left and weave
I saw the light, I saw the light
Swing your girl and promenade tonight
Now I'm so happy, no sorrow in sight
Praise the Lord, I saw the light

*I was a fool to wander and stray
Straight is the gate and narrow's the way
Now I have traded the wrong for the right
Praise the Lord
FIGURE Mainstream, corner progression
Heads (Sides) square thru four hands around you go
Dosado your corner make an ocean wave you know
Ladies trade then, run to the right
Tag the line all the way thru, cloverleaf tonight
Four boys square thru 3/4 around
Swing your corner and promenade the town
Now I'm so happy, no sorrow in sight
Praise the Lord, I saw the Light
FIGURE (ALTERNATE) Plus, corner progression
Heads (Sides) promenade travel halfway around
Walk in and star thru with the two you found

Swing your corner and promenade tonight
Now I'm so happy, no sorrow in sight
Praise the Lord, I saw the Light

Sides face grand square
Just like a blind man I wandered along
Worries and cares I claimed for my own
Then like a blind man, God gave back His sight

No more darkness no more night
Now I'm so happy, no sorrow in sight
Praise the Lord, I saw the light
CLOSER Basic - SSD Week 1
Four ladies promenade, go one time around
Run back and swing your man around
Join all your hands and circle left you go
Allemande your corner and weave the ring

Now I'm so happy, no sorrow in sight
Praise the Lord, I saw the light
