SACRED FIRE
Music & Lyrics: Heather Alexander

Hickory, birch and willow, oak, ash and thorn,
Hazel, holly, rowan are the nine where the flame is born-
All of you who gather here bear wounds that never healed,
Festered and forgotten, blood stained and congealed-

Souls with horrid secrets, bodies that can’t feel,
Love is just a faerie tale! Only pain is real-
Your lips are sealed in silence with needs you cannot speak,
You want to heal the violence but you all fear what you seek-

OH, VICTIMS OF A WRONG DESIRE!
OH, I HEAR YOU CRY FOR SACRED FIRE!
CRAWL UP ON YOUR KNEES AND SCREAM MY NAME!
YOU’VE SUMMONDED ME BEFORE YOU-
JUST REACH OUT AND TOUCH MY FLAME!

Bridgit or Osiris, Micheal, Uriel,
Conjure me by any name to disenchant this spell-
The hatred lashing at your soul that forces you to pray,
To heal will cost a painful toll to frighten you away-

I offer up an answer to end your nightmare days,
In perfect truth with perfect love we’ll light a holy blaze-
Summon all your suffering, set and burn my seal,
Stare at truth unblinking, to hurt and then to heal

Heal the wound, sear the pain-
Let the tears fall down like rain-
If thee to thine own self be true-
Nothing can have power over you!
No one can have power over you!

FLAME OF SACRED FIRE!

Balance of Nature
by Alexander James Adams

supported by 27 fans who also own “Sacred Fire”

Alexander James Adams's Balance of Nature is a wonderful album. The songs are wonderful, musically and lyrically, and He of the Sidhe is an incredible example of it. Nearly all the songs are about transitions of some sort, or about moving forward, and they are all worth listening to. Thanks for putting out such a wonderful album. Kamani

A Familiar Promise

Fav tracks, more like. Storyteller and Close Your Eyes. When things are darkest, I think of these songs, the tiny spark to keep things lit. I know that sounds campy, but it's true. Heather's and now Alex's music help with my clinical anxiety and depression, and I need all I can get. Lia Graf

This is exactly the album that I need right now. Especially Warlock's Oath and Fang into Vein. Of course, the entire album is glorious spooky goodness. I'm in love. <3 Sai Chi
