Lyrics Karyn Crisis' Gospel of the Witches - The Ascent

Be near me now
As I die unto myself
Releasing in a flame of gold and laid to rest beside myself.

I open the door of no return,
And say farewell to sorrows past,
And die unto the light And die unto the light.

EARTH, AIR, FIRE, WATER

Consecrate me to the Great 4 Quarters

EARTH, AIR, FIRE, WATER

Tago! Alpena! Settrano! Meana!

Eh heh yeh
Yud heh vahv hey Elohim
Yud heh vahv heh Elo a v’dah at
Shaddai el chai, Adonai, Ha a retz

It’s not for me to have and to hold.
When I know the gold is inside me,
So I let go, I let go
When it’s time it will return to me,
Completely enflame me.
The searing flames of in-between. On the breath of Ra the serpent sings,
never be the same FIRE Move Through WATER Move through EARTH
Move through AIR

Never be the same again...
staring at the flames
in the flames

White Willow
I reclaim
these Ancient Ways
for which I’ve been burned,
from which I hid,
from which I ran

I RECLAIM
I RECLAIM
I RECLAIM

My Ancient Guides call me
from the hearth and it’s flames
to dance under the Moon again
and in the sun, too, I shall
rise in Phoenix light

I RECLAIM
I RECLAIM
I RECLAIM

I hold my path blessed again,
blessed again

I RECLAIM
I RECLAIM
I RECLAIM

through my heart
all the treasures are handed to me
blossoming upon the Golden Bough
She gifted to me
Dear Mother,
Dear Guide,
Blessed is this Light
