We stand in your place, Ancestors.
We perform your deeds, Ancestors.
“Do not forget, do not forget” —
Let it be these words, Holy Ones,
that my heart sings in my chest.
Do not forget, do not forget,
to walk in the sacred way.
Do not forget, do not forget,
that all I see is sacred.
Do not forget, do not forget
my sacred duty to the world which surrounds me.
Do not forget, do not forget.
Grant me this gift, you whom I worship, not to forget.
I release, and I let go.
I let Spirit guide my life.
No more struggle, no more strife.
I am only here for love.
I am only here for love.
I am only here for love.
NOTES:
Seems to be a variation on “I Release and I Let Go” (Music and lyrics by Michael Beckwith and Ricky Byars.)
In this circle, no fear.
In this circle, deep peace.
In this circle, great happiness.
In this circle, safety.
In this body…
In this family…
In our children…
In this moment…
In this circle…

In the spirit of the earth,
we are coming together.
In the spirit of the earth,
we are one.
In the spirit of the earth,
we are singing and dancing.
In the spirit of the earth,
we are one.
Hear our voices, soaring high,
reaching for the sun.
Hear our footsteps, even and strong.
They will echo through the night.
