Come We Now as a People
(Words and music by Ian Corrigan) Come we now as a people To gather at the sacred well. Come we now as a people Together in the warmth and the light of the flame. Earth Mother Song (author unknown) Earth Mother, we honor your body Earth Mother, we honor your bones Earth Mother, we sing to your spirit Earth Mother, we sing to your stones Cosmology Prayer (by Ceisiwr Serith) The waters support and surround us The land extends about us The sky stretches out above us: At the center burns a living flame. May all the Kindreds bless us. May our worship be true May our actions be just May our love be pure. Blessings, and honor, and worship to the holy ones. The Portal Song (Words and music by Ian Corrigan ©Stonecreed Grove, ADF) CHORUS: By Fire and by Water, between the Earth and Sky We stand like the World Tree rooted deep, crowned high. Come we now to the Well, the eye and the mouth of Earth, Come we now to the Well, and silver we bring, Come we now to the Well, the waters of rebirth, Come we now to the Well, together we sing: Repeat CHORUS We will kindle a Fire, Bless all, and with harm to none, We will kindle a Fire, and offering pour, We will kindle a Fire, A light 'neath the Moon & Sun, We will kindle a fire, our spirits will soar. Repeat CHORUS Gather we at the Tree, the root & the crown of all, Gather we at the Tree, Below & above, Gather we at the Tree, Together we make our call, Gather we at the Tree, In wisdom & love. Repeat CHORUS (with gusto) |
