The priestesses

The Priestesses

spiral

The priestesses are returning
Their footsteps on the land
They find the strength to tread their path
As the Goddess takes their hand.

So follow Her
Where'r She leads
With joy and love and learning
And know that deep within the Earth
The Wheel is ever turning.

The priestesses are returning
They have clearly heard Her call
They come to Her with open hearts
As the patriarchy falls

So follow Her
Where'r She leads
With passion, love and laughter
And know that where your footsteps fall
Others will come after.

Their ancient sisters call to them
Their voices on the breeze
They hear them in the bubbling streams
And in the whispering trees

So follow Her
Where'r She leads
With wildness, love and courage
And know that from our ancient path
Many others we will nourish

The priestesses are returning
Their voices strong and clear
They know that with Goddess within
They have no need to fear

We follow Her
Where'r She leads
With strength and trust and knowing
And know that now and evermore
The Goddess is returning!
