Blessed be the guardians of the worlds (2x)
Blessed be the East at dawn
Blessed be the South in fire
Blessed be the West water
Blessed be the North earth
All and of the Lady and Lord
Blessed be the guardians of the worlds
For they stand on a barren plane, 
Watching watching all that goes round
Guardians of the Lady and Lord
Guardians of the Earth our home
May life thrive now and always

Blessed be the guardians of the worlds (2x)
Blessed be the East at dawn
Blessed be the winds of change
Blessed be the thoughts that flow onward in a new way
That is about to begin now  (violin solo)

Blessed be the guardians of the worlds (2x)
Blessed be the South at noon
Blessed be the warm hearthfire
Blessed be the heart's desire, sustenance of all life
And of thy will to live   (sax solo)

Blessed be the guardians of the worlds (2x)
Blessed be the West twilight
Blessed be the womb waters
Blessed be dissolving love, binding all and freeing
All who know that love is to give  (jazz guitar solo)

Blessed be the guardians of the worlds (2x)
Blessed be the Earth's midnight
Blessed be the corn and wheat
Blessed be the body's touch, center of existence
Miracle healing ground of all being  (drum solo)
