Raise All Your Voices by CapriUni
(A Winter Solstice Carol)

Come gather together and sing with glad hearts!
Sing for the sun's return out of the dark.
The wheel, it is turning, the dance it goes on.
So raise all your voices, fill the air with sweet song!

Oh, sing with the Goddess: "The world is reborn --
Shining as bright as the very first morn!"
The old year has ended, let go of old wrongs.
And raise all your voices, fill the air with sweet song!

Though winter will bring us cold nights and fierce wind,
Know by this dawning that hardship will end.
And, like the sun's rays, may our hearts all grow strong.
Come! Raise all your voices, fill the air with sweet song!

Give thanks to the Goddess, the sweet living Earth --
Thanks for the cycle of death and rebirth.
She lives in our hearts, and the love that we share,
So raise all your voices, let a song fill the air!
