300px|right Covenant Dance is a song included in the Halo: Original Soundtrack.

As its name implies, the song is carried by a strong dance beat. At 00:16, the beat becomes underlaid to a more dominant snaredrum beat. Starting at 00:30, a variation of the Halo theme starts off with the monkish chant in time to the beat. At 00:52, the beat and chant grind to a halt and are replaced by a less regular synth beat. At 01:07, a higher synth melody arises to follow the new synth beat. At 01:15, the drumbeat starts up again. At 01:31, the chant returns, but shortly disappears again. Soon after, the drum and synth follow it, allowing the song to smoothly conclude. The piece plays for a total of 1 minute and 57.106 seconds.

It is most most notably heard on the level Assault on the Control Room and during fights with the Flood on Two Betrayals, Keyes and The Maw. Template:Halo Music
