From the recording Goddess Rising
Album: Goddess Rising ©2000
Sandra Locklear (ThunderEye Music / BMI)
A female soul journey, dedicated to Anthea Francine of San Francisco, whom I met at one of the very first Women of Wisdom Conferences back when it was held at Antioch University in Seattle. When I got home this song poured out of me. Features Jack Klitzman on soprano sax.
Lyrics
ANTHEA
Breathed by the winds of an Eastern sky
Born on the wings of a butterfly
Anthea … Anthea
Shouldered by Psyche, baptized by pain
Journey to hell and back again
Anthea … Anthea
Chorus
Woman of soul, woman of grace
Mother of the human race
She’s the earth and the sky above
Woman … she is Love
May herspirit set us free
Daughter of darkness, sister of light
Amazon virgin, Amazon might
Anthea … Anthea
Spinning the threads of Her web so fine
Scarlet reflection of all that is mine
Anthea … Anthea
Chorus
2nd Chorus
Woman of soul, woman of grace
Seeking Her truth, finding Her place
She’s the earth ’neath the sky above
Woman … she is Love
And may our spirit set this planet free
