For love of the Earth
The Rite

Wandering through the night
They prepare for the ritual rite

Dancing, chanting, laughing aloud
There is more peace and joy in this crowd

Calling to and invoking Mother Earth
The shadow of flames dance on the hearth

Diana, Aradia, Hecate come to us all
The Goddess within us we do call

Cernnunos, Pan, Osiris come and see
Dance with us around the fire, be merry, be free

As the cone of power grows and grows
We feel the Earth tingling our toes

Release it, release it into flight
Work the spell with all our might

Sitting, relaxing, praising with a feast
We open the circle ending in the East
