Tomorrow Shall Be My Dancing Day is an English carol usually attributed as 'traditional', its first written appearance is in William B. Sandys' Christmas Carols Ancient and Modern of 1833. It is most well known in John Gardner's adaptation, but numerous other composers have made original settings of it or arranged the traditional tune, including Gustav Holst, Igor Stravinsky. The verses of the hymn progress through the story of Jesus told in his own voice.
