(sung by Heidi Wilson)
Holy
Fire in the sun
Water in the river, and
Wind within my lungs
Oh holy
Earth beneath my feet
All of us are offerings
and also at the feast
Words: J.R.R. Tolkien (The Hobbit & Lord of the Rings)
Music: Joshua Blaine
May the wind, may the wind,
may the wind under your wings
Bear you where, bear you where
the sun sails and the moon walks. Not all who wander are lost.
By Chandler Yorkhall
(sung by Patricia & Rebecca Csuy)
Full Moon outside my window
this warm September night
Pulls me into wakefulness
far too early.
I’d rather be sleeping
the day is already too long for me
I’ll just wait for dawn.
By Judi Vinar
Every little wish
that I wish for me,
is a wish
for we.
Sunshine,
then some rain.
Sunshine,
and then some rain.
Moonlight and starlight (3x)
By Jane Lewis
Let me sing as the sun rises
Let me sing as the day falls
Let me offer this prayer to the moonlight
Let me stand in the beauty of it all
(Let me sing to the beauty)
By Patricia Norton
May you know
the love that surrounds you
is as warm
as summer sun on sand;
and until
the time that we meet again,
may love hold you
in the palm of her hand.
