Made of ash and willow withe
Tied with thongs of willow bark
By running stream at moonset dark.

As the ritual fire is lighted;
Sweep ye circle, deosil,
Sweep out evil, sweep out ill,
Make the round of the ground
Where we do the Lady's will.

Besom, besom, Witches' (or: Lady's) broom
Sweep out darkness, sweep out doom
Rid ye Lady's hallowed ground
Of demons, imps and Hel's red hounds;
Then stand ye down on Her green earth
By running stream or Mistress' hearth,
'Till called upon at Sabbath night
To cleanse once more the dancing site.

With no beginning, and never ending

What we will shall be done: We are one, we are one

We Are One With The Lady/Lord

We are one with the Lady: We are one with the Lord
We are one with the chalice: We are one with the sword
And we pray that the balance will one day be restored
And they'll know we are Pagan by our love, by our love
Yes they'll know that we are Pagan by our love

 

We Are Opening

We are opening up in sweet surrender: To the luminous love light of the one (bis)
We are opening: We are opening (bis)

 

We Are The Old Women (People)

We are the old women (people): We are the new women (people)
We are the same women (people): Stronger (deeper, wiser etc..) than before

 

Wearing My Long Wing Feathers

Wearing my long wing (white) feathers as I fly
Wearing my long wing (white) feathers as I fly
I circle around, I circle around
The boundaries of the Earth: The endless universe
Arapaho Ghost Dance Song. Melody by Judith Foster (NROOGD)

 

We Have Gathered

We have gathered in their names: Now we sing them home again

 

Where I Am

I am the walking breath, I am the spirit of the earth
I am alive and walking, where I am is beautiful

 

Wiccan Amazing Grace

Amazing Grace, how sweet the earth
That formed (bore) a witch like me
I once was burned, now I survive
Was hanged but now I sing. (I'm free)

T'was grace that drew down the Moon
And grace that raised the sea
The magic of the people's will
Will set our Mother free

 


You Who Are The Circle

You who are the circle and You who are healing me
I who am the circle and I who am healing you
You are my people (Unite my people), be as one, be as one
You are my people (Unite my people), be as one, be as one
