Various Chants





If you are like me, you always have the urge to run around the house naked chanting songs to the Goddess and God, but you lose all inspiration when you sit down to write a perfect chant to fit the way you are feeling and can't find the right words. So to help those who are like me (people who can't come up with the right words to fit the way they are feeling) I have provided various chants and prayers that I have found on my journeys through cyber space.

I have given credit to those I could and the rest are nameless for now. If you see something you wrote and want me to either give you credit or take it off my site then please e-mail me from the link on my BOS page.

Witches' Chant by The Grimoire of Lady Sheba

Darksome night and shining Moon,

Hearken to the witches' rune.

East then South, West then North,

Hear! Come! I call Thee forth!

By all the powers of land and sea,

Be obedient unto me.

Wand and Pentacle and Sword,

Hearken ye unto my word.

Cords and Censor, Scourge and Knife,

Waken all ye into life.

Powers of the witch's Blade,

Come ye as the charge is made.

Queen of Heaven, Queen of Hell,

Send your aid unto the spell.

Horned Hunter of the night,

Work my will by magic rite.

By all the powers of land and sea,

As I do say, "so mote it be."

By all the might of moon and sun,

As I do will, it shall be done.

Prayer for Peace

written by Diane

Here is one that needed only 2 words omitted...it is the Prayer of St Francis

Make me an instrument of your peace.

Where there is hatred, let me show love;

where there is injury, pardon;

where there is doubt, faith;

where there is despair, hope;

where there is darkness, light;

and where there is sadness, joy.

O Divine Master,

grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console;

to be understood as to understand;

to be loved as to love.

For it is in giving that we receive,

it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,

and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.

makes our winter's mirth.

and the heaven's rain.

And blessed be, and so may we

Singing your thousand living names

Cauldron of air around my brow

Warmed by rhythm of breath and sound

Telling more than a tongue's allowed

Tree of fire within my brow

Horse and hare and salmon and sow

By eye and hair and fin and crown

Light the sacred circle now

Maze of water above my brow

Blood and river and tide flow down

Walk the depths and be not drowned

Fill the sacred circle now

Veil of earth before my brow

Furrow turned with a living plow

Plant the seed and ask not how

Be the sacred circle now

Maypole song

The planting of the seed and the winding round the pole

And the dancing to the music and the plowing of the earth

Is the way the people did it in the forest and the field

In the springtime in the sunlight when the moon was coming up

In the springtime in the moonlight when the sun was going down

Was the time the people did it in the field and in the glade

With the dancing in the grass and the rhythm of the plowing

Was the planting of the seed and the winding round the pole.
