Hark the Neo Pagans sing,
Glory to the Holly King!
Peace on Earth and mercy mild,
God and Goddess reconciled,
Hear us now as we proclaim,
We have risen from the flames,
Our ancient Craft now we reclaim,
In the God and Goddess'' names
Hark the Neo-Pagans sing,
Glory to the Holly King!
Herne by highest love adored,
Herne the ever-reborn Lord,
At all times behold Him come,
Offsring of the Holy One,
Veiled in flesh, the Godhead see,
Hail incarnate Deity!
Our ancient Craft we now reclaim,
In the God and Goddess'' names
Hark the neo-Pagans sing,Glory to the Holly King!

O our Mother of the Earth blessed is your name
Blessed are your fields and forests,
Your rocks and mountains, your grasses and trees and flowers,
And every green and growing thing.
Blessed are your streams and lakes and rivers,
The oceans where our life began, and all your waters
That sustain our bodies and refresh our souls.
Blessed is the air we breathe, your atmosphere, that
Surrounds us and binds us to every living thing.
Blessed are all creatures who walk along your surface or swim
In your waters, or fly through your air, for they are all our relatives.
Blessed are all people who share this planet, for we are one family
And the same spirit moves through us all.
Blessed is the sun, our day star, bringer of morning and the heat
Of summer, giver of light and life.
Blessed is the moon, our mighty lamp, ruler of the tides, protector of all
Women, and guardian of our dreams.
Blessed are the stars and the planets, the time-keepers who fill our nights
With beauty and our hearts with awe.
O Great Spirit whose voice we hear in the wind and whose face we see in
The morning sun, blessed is your name.
Help us to remember that you are everywhere, and teachUs the way of peace...

From Marilyn in Darkness and in Light:
"Yule tide blow wind into our sails,
The despair end and goodness prevail,
That each should move forward,
Toward thine own divine true will,
By the power of stone,cauldron,sphere and sword,
May each holy dream by found and fulfilled!
Blessed be!"
