Dear God of the woodland
Dear God of the wild things
That in the woodland frolic and hunt
Pan of the wild eyes
Chasing nymphs in the wilderness
Pray look our way that we may know you
Dear God of shepherds
Dear God of boundaries
That divide world from world of this great cosmos
Hermes of the winged helm
Father of the goat-footed God
Come forth in your wildest form that we may know you
Shepherd of the Goat-God
Horny God of the herds
Come forth and let us adore you
In all your wild glory and all your raging abandon
Let us be enriched by your presence
And enchanted by your divine magic
Pan of the horned head
Hermes of the winged sandals
Son and Father
Fill us with the joy of nature’s beauty
And a healthy fear of her dangers
Even as we seek to separate ourselves from her
Pan the great
Fill us with wonder
And hope
Hermes the Olympian
Fill us with divine purity
And the word of heaven
Art: Hermes and Pan by Paul John Reid, Scottish Artist
