Invocations to the Goddess and the God
Scott Cunningham
These are two of my favorite invocations.  They are fairly short, easy to memorize, and work well for me, especially if I don't have time to prepare for a more original ritual.  I use an amended version for my rituals, making it more personal to me, but the original is beautiful and "to the point".
Invocation to the Goddess

Gracious Goddess,
You who are Queen of the Gods,
the lamp of night,
the creator of all that is wild and free;
Mother of woman and man;
Lover of the Horned God and protectress of all the Wicca:
Descend, I pray,
with Your Lunar ray of power
upon my circle here!


Invocation to the God

Blazing God,
You who are the King of the Gods,
Lord of the Sun,
Master of all that is wild and free;
Father of woman and man,
Lover of the Moon Goddess and protector of all the Wicca:
Descend, I pray,
with Your Solar ray of power
upon my circle here!
