lyrics

SACRED FIRE
Music & Lyrics: Heather Alexander

Hickory, birch and willow, oak, ash and thorn,
Hazel, holly, rowan; are the nine where the flame is born-
Those of you who gather here bear wounds that never healed,
Festered and forgotten, blood stained and congealed-

Souls with horrid secrets, bodies that can’t feel,
Love is just a faerie tale! Only pain is real-
Your lips are sealed in silence with needs you cannot speak,
You want to heal the violence but you all fear what you seek-

OH, VICTIMS OF A WRONG DESIRE!
OH, I HEAR YOU CRY FOR SACRED FIRE!
CRAWL UP ON YOUR KNEES AND SCREAM MY NAME
YOU’VE SUMMONDED ME BEFORE YOU-
JUST REACH OUT AND TOUCH MY FLAME!

Bridgit or Osiris, Micheal, Uriel,
Conjure me by any name to disenchant this spell-
The hatred lashing at your soul that forces you to pray,
To heal will cost a painful toll to frighten you away-

I offer up an answer to end your nightmare days,
In perfect truth with perfect love we’ll light a holy blaze-
Summon all your suffering, set and burn my seal,
Stare at truth unblinking, to hurt and then to heal-

Heal the wound! Sear the pain!
Let the tears fall down like rain-
If to thine own self be true-
Nothing can have power over you-
No one can have power over you!


FLAME OF SACRED FIRE!
