Album: In Plain Sight
The Witches' Creed
Hear now the words of the witches,
the secrets we hid in the night,
When dark was our destiny's pathway,
that now we bring forth into light.
Mysterious water and fire,
the earth and the wide-ranging air,
By hidden quintessence we know them,
and will and keep silent and dare.
The birth and rebirth of all nature,
the passing of winter and spring,
We share with the life universal,
Rejoice in the magical ring.
Four times in the year the Great Sabbat,
Returns, and the witches are seen
At Lammas and Candlemas dancing,
On May Eve and old Hallowe'en.
When daytime and night time are equal,
when sun is at greatest and least,
The four Lesser Sabbats are summoned,
And Witches gather in feast.
Thirteen silver moons in a year are,
thirteen is the coven's array.
Thirteen times at Esbat make merry,
for each golden year and a day.
The power that was passed down the age,
each time between woman and man,
Each century unto the other,
ere time and the ages began.
When drawn is the magical circle,
by sword or athame of power,
Its compass between two worlds lies,
in land of the shades for that hour.
This world has no right then to know it,
and world of beyond will tell naught.
The oldest of Gods are invoked there;
The Great Work of magic is wrought.
For the two are mystical pillars,
that stand at the gate of the shrine,
And two are the powers of nature,
the forms and the forces divine.
The dark and the light in succession,
the opposites each unto each,
Shown forth as a God and a Goddess:
Of this our ancestors teach.
The master and mistress of magic,
that dwell in the deeps of the mind,
Immortal and ever renewing,
with power to free or to bind.
So drink the good wine to the Old Gods,
And Dance and make love in their praise,
Till Elphame's fair land shall
receive us in peace at the end of our days.
And Do What You Will be the challenge,
so be it Love that harms none,
For this is the only commandment.
By Magic of old, be it done!Cântico para a Deusa Trípliceephesius212010-08-19 | Song: Cântico para a Deusa Tríplice

Gaia
..... Gaia.....
I can see her when I dance around the fire When I lay naked on the earth, She is my desire she feeds me when I'm hungry, Protects me when I'm cold She was there at the beginning She'll be there when I grow old.
Hear her in the whispers of the wind Feel her in the raindrops on my skin Taste her in the sweetness of the berries on the vine My heart is hers forever and she is always mine
..... Gaia.....
After every winter she reminds me there's a spring We gather in our circles as we laugh and dance and sing She bursts forth in abundance to celebrate rebirth She is worthy of our reverence She's our Mother, She's our Earth
Hear her in the whispers of the wind Feel her in the raindrops on my skin Taste her in the sweetness of the berries on the vine My heart is hers forever and she is always mine

Witches
(Chorus) Who are the witches, where did they come from Maybe your great, great grandmother was one Witches were wise, wise women they say And there's a little witch in every woman today There's a little witch in every woman today
Witches knew all about flowers and trees How to use all the bark and the roots and the leaves When people grew weary from hard working days Witches made them feel better in so many ways
(Chorus)
Women had babies and witches were there To help and to feed them and give them some care And witches knew stories of how life began Don't you wish you could be one? Well maybe you can
(Chorus)
Some people thought that the witches were bad Some people were scared of the power they had The power to heal and to give and to cure It's not something to fear it's a treasure to share

The Question Song
The moon is high upon the hill,
And we have come to work our will.
What is your will, o children wise-o?
To call the queen who rides the skies-o
Our silver queen who rides the skies.
But is she dark or is she bright?
How shall you know her in the night?
What is her token to her own-o
That she among you might be known-o
That she among you might be known..
She is bright as starlight clear
Yet in the dark we know her near
The threefold moon is her own sign-o
That we may know her as divine-o
That we may know her as divine.
How shall you call her from the stars?
How shall she hear you from afar?
And if she comes in to this pace-o
How shall you name her threefold grace-o?
What shall you name her ancient grace?
We dance the circle nine times nine
We hold on high her holy sign
Draw down the moon upon the green-o
Come to Diana as our queen-o
Hail to Diana our bright queen.
The moon is high upon the hill,
And we have come to work our will.
What is your will, o children wise-o?
To call the queen who rides the skies-o
Our silver queen who rides the skies.Hecateephesius212010-07-29 | Song: Hecate

Hecate
Gone are the leaves on the Hecate trees
Shed to the wind till her skeleton claws the sky
I am alone in a forest of memory
Dragging behind me the howl of the winter
Herne, Herne, Herne I seek you in the woodlands Herne, Herne, Herne Your fire rages in my heart Herne, Herne, Herne Mist and shadows call thy name Herne, Herne, Herne The Wild Hunter rides
Wood nymphs embody colored, dancing leaves Ban shees, ban drees sing through the trees The darkness calls unto my soul The darkness calls unto my soul
Stag and stallion, guard and guide Riding through the autumn skies I hear the bay of charging hounds I hear the magic horn resound
Seeker of truth, nature's alchemist Crowned with the great stag horns He who wears the torc of pow'r Rider of the wind and storm
Herne, Herne, Herne I realize now I am part of the chase Herne, Herne, Herne The hunter and the hunted Herne, Herne, Herne I am the wind, the wind untamed Herne, Herne, Herne I am the dreaming earth
Come to me in the golden fields The sword of darkness now you wield As the wheel begins another course Fill me with your primal force
Seeker of truth, nature's alchemist Crowned with the great stag horns He who wears the torc of pow'r Rider of the wind and storm
Herne, Herne, Herne I seek you in the woodlands Herne, Herne, Herne Your fire rages in my heart Herne, Herne, Herne Mist and shadows call thy name Herne, Herne, Herne The Wild Hunter rides The Wild Hunter ridesWe Won't Wait Any Longerephesius212010-07-20 | Song: We Won't Wait Any Longer

WE WON'T WAIT ANY LONGER
(Chorus)
We won't wait any longer
We are stronger than before.
We won't wait any longer
We are stronger...
We have trusted no man's promise
We have kept to just ourselves
We have suffered from the lies
In all the books upon your shelves
And our patience and endurance
Through the Burning Times and now
Have given us the strength
to keep our vow
(CH)
You have grazed away the heather
And have razed the sacred grove
You have driven native people
From the places that they love
Though your greed
has been unbounded
You have felt the pangs of shame
Every time you trod upon
the Mother's name
(CH)
Though you thought you
had destroyed the memory
of the Ancient Ways
Still the people light the bale fires
Every year on Solstice Day
And on Beltaine Eve and Samhain
You can find us on the hill
Invoking once again the Triple Will
(CH)
Through the ages many races
Have risen and have gone
But dispersed among the nations
Of the world we linger on
Now the time has come
to take the sacred Cauldron of Rebirth
And fulfill our ancient pledges
to the Earth

HERETIC HEART
I am a bold and a Pagan soul a-rattlin' through this land.
I judge the world by my own lights and I come by my own hand;
And if you ask me where I learned to live so recklessly,
My skin, my bones, my heretic heart are my authority.
My mother was a spinner of tales, my father a dreaming man.
And I have swung on the Dragon's Tongue and danced on holy land.
I have sung the seed up from the ground and the bird down from the tree;
My skin, my bones, my heretic heart are my authority.
Once I was bound but now I'm gone away from the faithful fold
From those who preach that holiness is to do as you are told.
Though law and scripture, priest and prayer have all instructed me,
My skin, my bones, my heretic heart are my authority.
They tell me Jesus loves me, but I think he loves in vain;
He must go unrequited, on me he has no claim.
For the man who would command me must wear the horn and let me be
My skin, my bones, my heretic heart are my authority.
And while I breathe this glorious air, an outlaw I'll remain;
My body will not be subdued and I will not be saved
And if I cannot shout aloud, I'll sing it secretly,
My skin, my bones, my heretic heart are my authority!King's Danceephesius212010-07-19 | Song: King's Dance

Oak King rises in the winter time
Holly King rises in the summer time
The Wheel turns round, it's solstice time
And the King's dance on
Winter solstice, the Oak King's rising
See the stars in the long night sky
Shortest day, longest night darkness turns bright
The Oak King rises tonight
Wheel of the year keeps turning
King's dance round and round
All nature sings for the dance of the kings
The earth swings round the sun

CHANGING WOMAN
There was a time before we were born
We were the calm in the eye of the storm
We had a memory oh so deep
About the truth and the beauty so sweet
Man and a woman, passion ran wild
They gave birth to a freedom child
We are the children of love and light
We'll guide the planet thru it's perilous night
Lift up our hearts and raise our voices
Let the people know all of the choices
Lift up our hearts and raise our voices
Let the people know all of the choices
There is a woman
who weaves in the sky
See how she spins,
see her fingers fly
Chorus:
She changes everything she touches
And everything she touches changes
She changes everything she touches
And everything she touches changes
She's been beside us from beginning to end
She is our mother, our lover, our friend
She is the needle and we are the thread
She is the weaver and we are the web
Dark of night and a pale cold moon Mists like ghosts on a lonely moor Howling dogs and pounding hooves Cries of the damned souls lost and cold
And where will you go and what will you do When the Wild Hunt rides and we come for you Where will you go and what will you do When the Wild Hunt rides and we come for you
I'm Herne the Hunter and I lead this storm Of angry souls, all warriors born Tarnished armour, they're cursed to ride On this endless hunt to the end of time
Where will you go and what will you do When the Wild Hunt rides and we come for you (I come for you) Where will you go and what will you do When the Wild Hunt rides and we come for you
Ride the night, forever bound The ghostly steed and baying hound Join us now, no place to hide You're doomed to ride
Ride the night, forever bound The ghostly steed and baying hound Join us now, no place to hide You're doomed to ride
A vow that's broken and a friend betrayed An ally fallen to a hidden blade Crimes far away, seems long ago And need you fear, there's none who know
Where will you go and what will you do When the Wild Hunt rides and we come for you Where will you go and what will you do When the Wild Hunt rides and we come for you (I'm coming for you)
You hear our cries, in bed and warm With walls around you, safe from harm A secret sold and a brother slain Deeds unpunished, I know your name
Where will you go and what will you do When the Wild Hunt rides and we come for you (and I come for you) Where will you go and what will you do When the Wild Hunt rides and we come for you (and I come for you)
Ride the night, forever bound Ghostly steed and baying hound Join us now, no place to hide You're doomed to ride
Ride the night, forever bound Ghostly steed and baying hound Join us now, no place to hide You're doomed to ride
Ride the night, forever bound Ghostly steed and baying hound Join us now, no place to hide You're doomed to ride

THE GODDESS AND THE WEAVER
(Refrain)
Arachnia weaves and she weaves so well
She weaves a passage where the Gods will fly
Athena laughs as she casts her spell
While she watches from her loom on high
Athena, Athena, Goddess-born lady, you're a jealous one
And Arachnia knows that you are watching her
Watching for her work to be undone
Athena, have you set the quest
Will you take the weave and will you break the weft
Or will you let this lady spin her tapestry
Of the tale untold and then set her free
(Refrain)
Arachne, Arachne, the Goddess Athena's got a quest for you
And you must weave a story of the Gods that rule
In all their mystery and you must tell it true
So Arachnia's woven the seven moons
She's spun the silver thread upon an apple wood loom
And she's told the story of the gods that rule
In all their mystery, and yes, she's told it true
(Refrain)
So Athena came to earth disguised as a crone
To gaze upon the tapestry this mortal woman's sewn
And in and out of the fabric that was stretched across the loom
The sins and the secrets of the Gods were shown
Athena, Athena, Goddess born lady you're and angry one
And as you spin your spell around Arachnia,
To shift her shape into a weaving one
And as Arachnia sits and weaves upon her web
She casts her mind back and remembers when
She told the story of the Gods that rule
In all their mystery, and she told it true
