Goddess of the Dawn

Credits

A gentle chant asking the blessing of the Greek goddess Eos, meant for beginning one’s day in a sacred way. This track is by Alane Crowomyn. The lead vocal is by Melanie, with some background vocals by Marilyn and Alane. The lovely harp part is played by Dave Hoover.

This song is track 18 on our album Pantheon: Honoring the Pagan Divine. The whole album is available for sale here on Bandcamp, and this song can also be purchased as an individual digital download.

Goddess of the Dawn was sponsored by Rebekah Sabia, and is dedicated to all who struggle to be optimistic in the face of change, yet greet each day with courage, sending their positive intentions out to the awakening world.

Lyrics

Eos, Goddess of the dawn
Guardian of eastern skies
Open gates, let come the morn
Shine on me your sweet sunrise

On this day may I breathe in
Happiness to fill my soul
On this new day from my lips
Happiness breathe out to all
