Pagan Yule Carols!

Wiccan Yule Carols




Hark the Neo-Pagans Sing
"Sunblade"
(Tune: hark the herald angels sing)


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!

Silent Night
"Ellen Reed"


Silent night, Solstice Night
All is calm, all is bright
Nature slumbers in forest and glen
Till the Springtime She wakens again
Sleeping spirits grow strong!
Sleeping spirits grow strong!

Silent Night, Solstice Night
Silver moon shing bright
Snowflakes blanket the slumbering earth
Yule fires welcome the Sun's rebirth
Hark, the Light is reborn!
Hark, the Light is reborn!


Silent Night, Solstice Night
Quiet rest till the Light
Turning every the rolling wheel
Brings the Winter to comfort and heal
Rest your spirit in peace!
Rest your spirit in peace!

Dancing in a Wiccan Wonderland!
"Alexander & Aarcher"


Pagans sing, are you listenin'
Alters set, candles glisten,
Its a magical night, we're having tonight
Dancing in a Wiccan Wonderland


Blades held high, censor smoking,
God and Goddess, we're invoking,
Through Elements Five, we celebrate life,
Dancing in a Wiccan Wonderland,


Queen of Heaven, is in her place,
Triple Goddess, now the Crone face
Above and below, She's the Goddess we know,
Dancing in a wiccan wonderland.


Now the God, is the provider
Supplying game for our fire,
Above and below, He's the Horned one we know,
Dancing in a Wiccan Wonderland


In a cirle we can burn a yule fire,
And await the rising of the Sun,
It's the great wheel turning for the new year,
loaded with abundance and great fun


Later on, by the fire,
Cone of Power, gettin' higher
Its a Magickal Night, we're having tonight,
Dancing in a Wiccan Wonderland!

Moon of Silver
(We three Kings)


Chorus: Oh, Moon of Silver, Sun of Gold,
Gentle Lady, Lord so bold!
Guide us ever, failing never,
Lead us in the ways of old.


Maiden, Mother, Ancient Crone,
Queen of Heaven on your throne,
Praise we sing thee, love we bring thee,
For all that you have shown.


Lord of Darkness, Lord of Light,
Gentle brother, King of Might,
Praise we sing thee,Love we bring thee
On this Solstice Night.

Wiccan Amazing Grace
(Margot Adler)


Amazing grace, how sweet the earth
that formed a witch like me
I once was burned, but now I thrive
Was hanged but now I sing.


Twas grace that drew down the moon
and Grace that raised the sea
The Magick of the people's will
Will set our Mother free!


Amazing grace, how sweet the earth
that saved a witch like me
I once was burned, but now I thrive,
Was hanged but now I sing!

Winter's Children

Come my friend and quickly we'll go
A following the wintery roe-buck
up the mountain thick with snow
To where they build the Yule fire.

Chorus:
Sleep Mother Earth
Your child is a borning
Sleep til the land
In Spring has it's morning
Bless Winter's children and sleep

Watch the flames as they dance higher
A funerary old years pyre
To dance the new sun in with fire
Where mountain meets the sky.

Come and watch, the old year dies
As all things must we cannot deny
And like us all returns by and by
To sip life from a God's horn.

Dance until the new year is born
Whirling, twirling up til the morn
Calling to the unicorn
And dancing in the cold snow

Like a babe in her mother's arms
Days grow longer upon the earth
Warming, sounding springs first alarms
See the year giving birth!

~~~
The Holly&The Ivy

The Holly and the Ivy
When both were full well grown
Of all the trees here in the wood
The Holly bears the crown.

Chorus:
Oh the rising of the Sun
The running of the deer
The playing of the pipes and drums
Sweet singing round the fire

The Ivy and the Holly
When both are full well grown
Of all the trees here in the wood
The Ivy wears the gown.

As the wren gives way to robin
And fall to winter tide;
They dying sun to newborn sun
And darkness turns to light.

~~~
Oh Come, All Ye Faithful

Oh come, all ye faithful
Gather round the Yule fire
Oh come ye, oh come ye to call the Sun!
Fires within us call the Fire above us:

Oh come let us invoke him! (x3)
Our Lord the Sun!

Yea, Lord, we greet Thee
Born again at Yuletide
Yule fires and candle flames
Are lighted for Thee
Come to Thy children, calling for
Thy blessing…
(repeat Chorus and Verse 1)

~~~
God Rest Ye, Merry Paganfolk

God rest ye, merry Paganfolk
Let nothing you dismay
Remember that the Sun returns
Upon the Solstice day!
The growing dark is ending now
And Spring is on its way,
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy!
Oh tidings of comfort and joy.

The Goddess rest ye merry, too
And keep you safe from harm
Remember that we live within
The circle of Her arms.

~~~
SILENT NIGHT

Silent Night, Holy Night,
All is calm, all is bright…
Nature slumbers in forest and glen
Til in Springtime She wakens again
Sleep in winters deep peace (repeat)

Silent Night, Holy Night
Silver Moon shining bright
Snowfall blankets the slumbering Earth
Yule fires welcome the Sun's rebirth
Hark, our Lord is reborn! (repeat)

Silent Night, Holy night,
Quiet rest til the Light
Turning ever, the circling Wheel
Brings the Winter to comfort & heal
Rest your spirits in peace (repeat)

Silent Night, Holy Night
All is calm, all is bright…
Nature slumbers in forest and glen
Til in Springtime She wakens again
Sleep in winters deep peace (repeat)

Wow, all these songs make me want to go out caroling on the solstice!

Joyous solistice to all, and to all a long, hot, sweaty night!

Re: we won !!!!

WE WON

Hardly. But your declaration of having "won" prompted me to post when I would have normally skipped this thread.

Look again. See the Holy baby Jesus in the manger, the animals celebrating his birth, the star guiding the shepards to his location, the gifts brought to the Jesus, the angels heralding his birth. THAT is the true Christmas which we celebrate as Christians.
