We Are

Lyrics by Lana Dalberg
Music by Alison Newvine
and Kathleen Neville-Shinn

We are the women who mixed the herbs

Our wisdom Earth, our knowledge it’s plants

We are the midwives who shepherded life

We moved in darkness to bring forth the light

We are the ones with hearts on fire

Burned at the stake, our wisdom seemed lost

We are the ones who grow from ashes

And now, anew, our wisdom arises

Deep Winter

Music by Dionne Kohler

Brigid Be My Flame

Lyrics and Music by Kathleen Neville-Shinn

Brigid be my flame

Brigid be my guide

Brigid walk with me today by my side

Brigid at the hearth

Brigid at the door

Brigid surround me behind and before

Conjure

Lyrics and Music by Alison Newvine

We gather in moonlight depths to shake loose patriarchal patterns

Our songs were buried beneath the steps to break loose we must dance together

Our voice set free when light falls away from the trees/ we build a fire and we conjure

We conjure, we conjure eternity's wisdom we conjure the compassionate queendom

We share our magic and rise to new sight curious witches conjuring through the night

From void to remembering, hearing the drums we saw burning hundreds of years ago

Is this real? Unforsaken covens weave new threads

Hand in hand we form a sisterhood reborn ~ this is what we're here to conjure

We conjure, we conjure eternity's wisdom we conjure the compassionate queendom

We share our magic and rise to new sight curious witches conjuring through the night

Crystalizing our shadows across dying earth it was taken long ago the sacred rite to birth

Through conjure, oooh conjure

Oooh, conjure eternity's wisdom we conjure the compassionate queendom

We share our magic and rise to new sight curious witches

Sacred Witches

Whimsical witches

Conjuring through all time

Fire of Hope

Lyrics and Music by Kathleen Neville-Shinn

Brigid, You glow in our hearts

Tend our fire of hope eternal

For the rebirth of the undying light

Goddess of eternal flame

Tended by women for centuries past

You burn in our hearts now again

So that injustice no longer will last

Grant us your golden vision

To awaken the world once again, for…

Brigid, You glow in our hearts

Tend our fire of hope eternal

For the rebirth of the undying light

Goddess of awakening light

You call back the Sun with lengthening days

Your priestesses keep Your flame alive

From coven, to convent, to kitchens today

Grant us Your song and laughter

Bringing joy when we’re frozen in fear, for…

Brigid, You glow in our hearts

Tend our fire of hope eternal

For the rebirth of the undying light

Goddess of returning spring

You raise up the tulips from under the snow

Grant us always the courage to sing

So even in winter of oppression we know

The Mother of All will return again

Even now, Her justice arises…

Brigid, You glow in our hearts

Tend our fire of hope eternal

For the rebirth of the undying light

Muse

Lyrics and Music by Alison Newvine

Hush I hear the beating of her heart, I hear the beating of her heart

Her heart

Muse, I thought you were lost to me

(I thought you were lost to me)

As I release control into this deep unknown

(Hush I hear the beating of her heart I hear the beating of her heart)

I'm gripped by pain and fear, why can't I feel you here?

(Hush I hear the beating of her heart I hear the beating of her heart)

Muse, I thought you'd forgotten me

(I thought you'd forgotten me)

As I call forth this song, I fear I've done it wrong

As I call for this voice, I make a different choice

But the obsession of the mind, am I holding onto time

(Hush I hear the beating of her heart)

We must leave it all behind, as the waves crash

(I hear the beating of her heart)

Obsession of the mind, I am holding onto time

(Hush I hear the beating of her heart)

We must leave it all behind, as the waves crash on

(I hear the beating of her heart..............her song)

Shattered into the void, into the place where I decide

Called into the matrix of Her heart

Longing for Her voice again

For this new song

Muse, I thought you were lost to me

(I thought you were lost to me)

Muse, you could never be lost to me

(You're never lost to me)

As we... let go, we are birthed anew and can grow

Surrender to the dying off of time & let me sing in you once more

Sing in you once more

Once more

Beloved

Lyrics by Dionne Kohler with Alison Newvine
Music by Dionne Kohler

Beloved, you are the voice I hear inside

The child lost from me years ago 

Your memory echoes where it hides 

Crying out to be known

Beloved, there are no words just this breathless sigh

A sigh that wants to be your song

Song for the child who could never cry 

Who has been hiding here so long

Listen, a song comes to you 

Listen, a song comes through you 

The music will set you free 

Music between you and me 

Beloved, sing with me

Beloved, this song sings through me just for you 

A song of healing, hope and harmony

We've found a way to make it through 

One day your voice will be set free

Beloved, you are the radiance pure and true

Igniting all I'll ever be

My light enfolding, protecting you

You are safe, run free

Listen, a song comes to you 

Your voice singing through 

The music will set you free 

Music between you and me 

Beloved, sing with me

Beloved, sing....

You're free 

She Believes

Lyrics and Music by Kathleen Neville-Shinn

Mother Earth stands with you

Sister Water feels the flow of your truth

Sibling Air will hear you

They listen and they believe

Daughter Fire rises within you

Her dancing guides your way

Spirit of joy and of hope

The Mother of All surrounds you

Eternal Goddess feels the flow of your truth

Sophia Wisdom hears you

She listens and She believes

Love Herself rises within you

Her flame consumes all fear

In Her you are one with the One who is All

The Mother’s love surrounds you

Feels your truth, lives within you

She holds you, She listens - And She believes

Walk this Path Anew

Lyrics and Music by Alison Newvine

Peace I hear you call take me now keep me from doing harm

Peace before my eyes fill me now so that I may rise

When the mountains start to break

When the bones inside me shake

And the thoughts inside my head leave me no choice

That's when I need your gentle voice

Peace come to me now, hold my heart, let me know I'm not alone

Peace you feel so far, day after day this wild wrestling still goes on

When my voice becomes too small

When the tears begin to fall

And the thoughts inside my head all disappear

That's when I need you to come near

Oh my precious one

You must know I'm not a battle to be won

I'm here right now, take my hand

And when you speak I will be with you too

Peace within me flow guide my voice so I may heal, learn and grow

Peace be with you too fill our hearts let us walk this path anew

The One

Lyrics by Lana Dalberg
Music by Kathleen Neville-Shinn

Who is this One who calls, whispering so late in the night…and in the light?

The voice calls out, calls my heart clearly

She calls me to hear, to see, and to love!!!

For She is the One - The One who births us all, The One – source of all being and

Form, The One - beloved and lover at once; All who love unite within her Light

Who is this Sweetness I open my heart to, despite the pain and unknown?

Who is this Mystery who holds me so closely, yet lies beyond my ken?

Her Love guides me daily… to love me,

For we are One - The One who births us all, The One – source of all being and

Form, The One - beloved and lover at once; All who love unite within her Light

In Her, seeds die to winter, in her, they rise up in Spring

In Her, we find ourselves changing, like the day to the night and back

We see, we hear, we grow out of fear and pain and death …

Because She is One - The One who births us all, The One – source of all being and

Form, The One - beloved and lover at once; All who love unite within her Light

Just when I think that I have it, She changes once again

For Her Being is infinite wisdom and infinite change… again and again, again and again

Can I trust Her spiral now?

Can I trust both the night and the light?

For they are One - The One who births us all, The One – source of all being and

Form, The One - beloved and lover at once; All who love unite within her Light

All who love unite within her Light

Melody of the Road
