Hymns to Sekhmet Songtext
von Gallows Hymn

Sekhmet
Mother of the gods
Sekhmet
Give birth to us all
Sekhmet
Lioness and Goddess
Sekhmet
Your people call

Deity of life
Daughter of the Sun
Grant us good harvest, fertility, and protection
Your will divine
Lady of the ointment jar
Mother of the Gods
Guardian, the eye of Ra


Bast
Silence in the darkness
Bast
′Til your holy light appears
Bast
From your throne give us comfort
Bast
Beloved end our fears

Drive out the vermin
Drive out the pestilence
Protect us from the spirits
That prey on the unborn
Your feline grace
Shines down your light upon us
Trample down our evil
We worship your likeness

Lead us, to the waters
Oh gracious, Sekhmet, our beloved
Feed us, pure holy, bast
Protect us
Oh curious Sekhmet
Guide us, provide us
Through all the trials of this world


We bow before your grace
Your granite smiling face
Your visions of the future
Guide us through the sands of time
We answer to your call
Before the one and holy all
Huntress of the vile
Protector of the Nile

Rid our hearts of fear
Bestow your strength upon us
Seep into our souls
Seize our regrets, make us whole
We call upon you now
Hear our prayers well
Heal our bodies
Restore our vitality
The waters of life
