Gaia Lyrics

If we turn from Life, we have only Death.
From the minute we humans started building fires to cook
our food, we have been aware
that we must revere the source of our lives and all life
on this planet.
And we have named that source "Mother of Life".
She is kind, sometimes cruel, always indifferent to
sacrifice except for those who came in their time -
fertility rites, the celebration of birth, of the new
year, thanks for the harvest.
But she is capricious and aloof.
Her manifestations: Serene, Ferocious, Willful, Cruel, Wise, Lustful, Mysterious,
Wanton, Loyal, Scheming, Jealous, Cool, Greedy, Dreaming.
She responds to arrogance by withholding her favors and
sometimes by destruction.
Her weapons are overwhelming, myriad, awesome: Winds,
Water, Lightning, Fire, Ice, Heat, Earthquake and
Tidalwave.
If we worship and revere male gods, we ignore Gaia's
ultimate power over us.
Turn from the Goddess of Life, and there is only Death.
Turn form the Mother of Life, and there is only Death.
