Song of the Goddess
Lyrics, music and performance
by Abracadabra
(my tribute to the Goddess)



You are the Great Mother Spirit
Omniscient in all of Nature
You are the feminine
You are the yin

You are the giver of life
The Mother of all creation
The ethereal wisdom in the wind

Your grace flows in the waters
Your love glistens as moonlight
You light up my night and show me
the awesome cosmic wonders

Your lunar globe guides my path
Its waxing and waning directs my deeds
You are the healer of wounds
and the restorer of the soul

Your infinite patience is only eclipsed
by your eternal flowing love

I cherish the gift of life
that you have bequeathed to me
I extol your sacred presence
now and forevermore

Namaste

Thanks, I think so too. I'd love to hear it sung by a real singer. bigsmile

I think the Goddess doesn't mind me singing it though. It's the thought that counts. :wink:

It began as a chant of praise that I wrote for the opening of all my circle rituals. Then I decided to add the guitar, and this is just what happened after that. So now instead of chanting it I sing it at the circle rituals. But it's still sort of 'chantish', although definitely more melodic than the original chant.

My circle castings are becoming music fests anyway. laugh

I find that using music in my rituals tends to raise the energy to a higher level. I've played as many as 5 instruments in one circle ritual; guitar, flute, clarinet, violin, and cello. bigsmile

Of course I'm not any good at any of them. But only the Goddess is listening, and well, all the other elemental spirits that come to my circles. Sometimes it can get pretty crowded here. Spirits take up more room that you might think. They're always flying around this way and that.
