One Song - Holiday Blessings

Sword and Staff
Heather Alexander


Kyrie Eleison! Maiden, Mother Crone of Host!
Kyrie Eleison! Father, Son and Holy Ghost!
Kyrie Eleison! Wind and lightning, Rain and Moss!
Kyrie Eleison! Sword and Staff, Cauldron and Cross!

A circlet of the Sacred Thorn,
The rising of the Sun reborn
A sacrifice for all Mankind
A Tree with root and branch entwined
God will grant His Blessings still,
Though we call Her what we will
We can name it what so ere,
A spell is nothing but a prayer

Holy Water, Sacred Spring
Angel Fire, Faerie Ring
Different, and yet still the same
Acceptance lies beyond the name
Each and all are tied as one
There should be no comparison
This one law is rudiment
Our faith’s defined by our intent

Stone and statue guard this ground
Different faiths together bound
Back to stand against the Dark with Light
Mother Earth, God above
Unify us all in love
Unite us though diversity
For Fear is our true enemy!
