I ran across these lyrics this evening and thought I'd share them since they seemed to fit.
This we know (Chief Seattle, Ron Jeffers)
This we know.
The earth does not belong to us;
we belong to the earth.
This we know.
All things are connected like the blood that unites one family.
All things are connected.
What ever befalls the earth,
Befalls the children of the earth.
This we know.
We did not weave the web of life,
we are mearly a strand in it.
What ever we do to the web,
we do to ourselves.
This we know.
Feel free to share other lyrics if you feel like it.

“ Burning Times ”
Sung by ~ Charlie Murphy
In the cool of the evening, they used to gather
'Neath the stars in the meadow circling an old oak tree
At the times appointed by the seasons
Of the earth and the phases of the moon
In the center, stood a woman
Equal with the others, respected for her worth
One of the many we call the witches
The healers, the teachers of the wisdom of the earth
And the people grew through the knowledge she gave them
Herbs to heal their bodies, spells to make their spirits whole
Hear them chanting healing incantations
Calling forth the wise ones, celebrating in dance and song
Isis, Astarte, Diana, Hecate, Demeter, Kali, Innana
Isis, Astarte, Diana, Hecate, Demeter, Kali, Innana
Isis, Astarte, Diana, Hecate, Demeter, Kali, Innana
There were those who came to power, through domination
And they were bonded in their worship of a dead man on a cross
They sought control of the common people
By demanding allegiance to the Church of Rome
And the Pope declared an inquisition
It was a war against the women, whose power they feared
In this holocaust in this age of evil
Nine million European women died
And the tale is told of those, who by the hundreds
Holding together chose their death in the sea
While chanting the praises of the Mother Goddess
A refusal of betrayal, women were dying to be free
Isis, Astarte, Diana, Hecate, Demeter, Kali, Innana
Isis, Astarte, Diana, Hecate, Demeter, Kali, Innana
Isis, Astarte, Diana, Hecate, Demeter, Kali, Innana
Now the Earth is a witch, and the men still burn her
Stripping her down with mining, and the poisons of their wars
Still to us the Earth is a healer, a teacher, a mother
The weaver of a web of life that keeps us all alive
She gives us the vision to see through the chaos
She gives us the courage; it is our will to survive
Isis, Astarte, Diana, Hecate, Demeter, Kali, Innana
Isis, Astarte, Diana, Hecate, Demeter, Kali, Innana
Isis, Astarte, Diana, Hecate, Demeter, Kali, Innana

Sorry, I know that no one has posted in this thread for a while, but I just had to say thanks for the lyrics KanedaMuyo and Jupiterkitsune! I went to realwitches.com and listened to the song 'Burning Times.' I loved it, it's the first song I've heard about paganism and the church.
Thanks again!
