Hymns to Sekhmet by Gallows Hymn Lyrics

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, till your holy light appears
Bast, from your throne give us comfort
Bast, beloved end our fears!

Drive out thе vermin, drive out the pеstilence
Protect us from the spirits, that prey on the unborn
Your feline grace, shines down a light upon us
Trample down our evil, we worship your likeness

Lead us to the waters of places, Sekhmet, our beloved
Feed us, 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!
