Hail the new year
The wheel turns
round
A joyous voice
is heard
Blessed be the
sound
Greetings Mother
of Light
We meet with
thee this night
When all the
veils are dropped from out sight
Greetings to our
honored dead
We hail thee
this night
Come and join
us at the table
we set for thee,
as is right
Earth trembles,
in the pale moonlight
As spirits roam
over the land tonight
Hail and be welcome
to our circle
Air rustles with
the winds
Soft voices carried
light
Hail and be welcome
to our circle
High the fire
burns, bring forth the light
A comforting
warmth, on this hallowed night
Hail and be welcome
to our circle
Cool the water
flows
We raise our
glasses high, to greet kin and kirth tonight
Hail and be welcome
to our circle
Hail Persephone,
Great Mistress of the pathways
Guide thou our
honored ones to us tonight
Hail Hades, Lord
of the underworld
May we sup at
thy table in pale moonlight
Hecate, Mother
of crossroads, thy hand is seen in shadow
May all who greet
thee, see the light
Gather we now,
to share our memories
Of times past
and lives now gone
To celebrate
their life with a song
Hail my ancestors
.. ye who walked before me
Hail my loved
ones who are no more to my eyes
My ears are open
to hear you speak
My heart is open
to hear your song
Gather we around
for an earthly feast
To share the
sweetness of life as we live it
No woes, no cares,
no sadness tonight
We celebrate
life in all its glory
We share in its
fleeting light
Let the candles
be lit in our loved ones names
Pass around the
light and share their days
Open we now the
gates
Between this
world and the next
Peering through
the mists of time
To see dear faces
in the light
Welcome one and
all our ancestors
Come sup with
us this night
Crone Mother whose
face is hidden from the light
Come ye forth
great Mother and join in our rites
Each living thing
in time comes to your embrace
Death is but
a door, that someday we all face
We honor our past,
We honor our
present,
We look forward
to the morrow
And give thanks
for all the line behind us
That brought
us here tonight
Our tools lay
ready, for blessings this night
To the Goddesses
glory, we consecrate them with light
Our fore mothers,
we ask thy blessings too
Reach out thy
hands, on all we do
Your blessings
we crave tonight of all nights
For thee are
our past, our present and our future in the light
We are the sum
of all that has gone before us
We bless it all
on this Hallowed night
This night of
the New Year do we face our fears
With candles
bravely lit, we look back over the days
We set aside
the masks we wear for one night
And face ourselves
in joy for what the morrow brings
Low the candle
burns, the rite is nearly done
Reach out your
sprit to your brethren
Hold tight to
the souls that surround you
Welcome to them
all this New Years day
May the Mothers
blessings abound within you
Earth trembled,
in the pale moonlight
As spirits roamed
over the land tonight
We thank you
for joining our circle
Air rustled with
the winds
Soft voices carried
light
We thank you
for joining our circle
High the fire
burned, bringing forth the light
A comforting
warmth it gave, on this hallowed night
We thank you
for joining our circle
Cool the water
did flow
We raised our
glasses high, and greeted kin and kirth tonight
We thank you
for joining our circle
