Amazing Grace Amazing grace, how sweet the Earth that bore a witch like me! I once was burned, now I survive, was hung and now I sing. T'was grace that drew down the moon and grace that raised the seas. The magic in the people's will will set our Mother free. We face the East and breathe the winds that move across this earth. From gentle breeze to hurricane our breath will bring forth the change. Turn towards the South and feel the fire that burns in you and me. The spirit's flame will rise again and burn eternally. We greet the West, our souls awash in tides of primal birth. Our tears and blood, our pain and love will cleanse and heal the earth. Reach into the North and know your roots down deep ancestral caves. We find the wisdom of the Crone, Of circles we are made. Amazing earth, enduring life, from death into rebirth. T'is earth I am and earth I love and earth I'll always be. Amazing grace, how sweet the Earth that bore witches like we. We once were burned, now we survive, were hung and now we sing. Goddess bless, so mote it be, Our magic spirals on. Merry meet and merry part and merry meet again. Lammas Night Tune: "I Gave My Love A Cherry." Words Mostly By Elexa I stood before my altar at Lammastide And asked the Lord and Lady to be my guides. "Please show to me a vision that I may see What sacrifice is worthy to give to Thee." They showed to me an apple without a core. They showed to me a dwelling without a door. They showed to me a palace where They may be And unlock it without a key. How can there be an apple without a core. How can there be a dwelling without a door? How can there be a palace where They may be And They may unlock it without a key? My spirit is an apple without a core. My mind is a dwelling without a door. My heart is a palace where They may be And They may unlock it without a key. I stood before my altar on Lammas night. And gave my mighty Lord and Lady bright The sacrifice They asked for-with spirit free, Upon that Lammas ev'ning, I gave them me. from the Pagan Library updated January 27, 2000 Net Sisters� �
