Mighty Gods

Mighty Gods
Lords of the cosmos
Keepers of the sacred fires
That bring impetus to the universe

O Zeus of the mountain tops
Master of the air that rolls across the plains

O Poseidon of the sea depths
Master of the waters that crash against the coast

O Hades of the deepest caverns
Master of the depths of the earth where renewal begins

Mighty Gods
Lords of change and the subtle whims of time
Givers of blessings
That bring good but sometimes ill to mortal kind

O Apollo of the radiant face
Giver of healing and the arts of music

O Hephaestus of the strong arms
Giver of skill in the working of metal

O Hermes of the winged helm
Giver of secrets and purveyor of divine will

O Ares of the violent scream
Giver of strength in the face of desperate war

O Dionysus of the full goblet
Giver of release from the pains of life

Mighty Gods
Lords of all things
Keepers of the cosmos
That is the sacred abode of all life

Art: Luca Giordano - 1634 - 1705
