Maypole Dance

Weave, spin, dance your cares away,
A spirit fire's alive to your entrancing,
Weave, spin, dance into the May,
The earth and sky are wed as you are dancing,
Weave now

Earth Fire Chant

Earth fire, always calls me home
Earth fire, melts this heart of stone
Earth fire, shouting out my name
Earth fire, changing and the same

The Sun Child

The Sun Child is born!
On wings of the Spirit,
Now come ye forlorn for the Spring shall return.
The Sun Child is born!
Come every one hear it,
Come from every corner for winter shall burn.

Now The Darkest Time Of Winter

Now the darkest time of winter
Fire is burning in the hearth
Still the cold trees.

Spirits Everywhere

We are shining in the morning
Spirits ev'ry where
Do you see us in the morning?
Spirits ev'ry where
Do not fear, the ancient ones are calling,
Do not fear, the ancient ones are here.

We are whispering in the evening
Spirits ev'ry where
Do you hear us in the evening?
Spirits ev'ry where
Do not fear, the ancient ones are calling,
Do not fear, the ancient ones are here.

We are standing right beside you
Spirits ev'ry where
Do you feel that we could guide you?
Spirits ev'ry where
Do not fear, the ancient ones are calling,
Do not fear, the ancient ones are here.

We are dancing on the water
Spirits ev'ry where
In the earth and air and fire
Spirits ev'ry where
Do not fear, the ancient ones are calling,
Do not fear, the ancient ones are here.
