Here are the words to a
few of our favourites...
Ancient Mother
Ancient Mother, I hear you
calling
Ancient Mother, I hear your song
Ancient Mother, I hear you laughing
Ancient Mother, I taste your tears
Humble
Humble yourself in the
sight of your sister
You need to bow down low and
Humble yourself in the sight of your sister
You need to know what she knows and
We shall lift each other up
Higher and higher
We shall lift each other up
Witches
Who were the
witches? Where did they come from?
Maybe your great, great grandmother was one
Witches were wise, wise women they say
And there's a little witch in every woman today
(There's a little witch in every woman today)
Witches knew all about
flowers and trees
How to use all the bark and the roots and the leaves
When people grew weary from hard working days
Witches made them feel better - in so many ways
(Chorus)
Women had babies and
witches were there
To help and to feed them and give them sweet care
And witches knew stories of how life began
Don't you wish you could be one? - well, maybe you can!
(Chorus)
Some people thought that
the witches were bad
Some people were scared of the power they had
The power to heal and to give and to cure
It's not something to fear - it's a treasure to share
(Chorus)
There's a little witch
There's a little witch
There's a little witch in every woman today!
Let it Go
Let it go, let it flow
Let it go, let it flow
Let the river run through
you
Feel the healing waters flow
Let the river run through you
Feel the healing waters flow
The earth she wants
you
The earth she wants you
The earth she wants you
To take you home
The earth she wants
you
The earth she wants you
The earth she wants you
To take you home
Let it go, let it flow
Let it go, let it flow
Let the rhythm run through
you
Feel the power of the drum
Let the rhythm run through you
Feel the power of the drum
The earth she wants
you
The earth she wants you
The earth she wants you
To take you home
The earth she wants
you
The earth she wants you
The earth she wants you
To take you home
