Gather, sit together, mend the ties,
Gather, sit together, mend the ties.
If a grievance stirs, a whispered plight,
Gather, sit and council, find the light.
Let no court's cold gavel resound,
Seek the hearth, where solace is found.
Let no courthouse darken your door,
Heal within, and nothing more.
Do not magnify the small, the slight,
Do not let molehills steal the light.
By the Earth's embrace, I implore,
By the Earth, and evermore,
Gather, sit together, mend the ties,
Gather, sit together, mend the ties,
Gather, sit together, mend the ties.

Your woes, your conflicts, let them cease,
Resolve them all, and find your peace.
Share your joys, your sorrows too,
Lessen the heartbreaks, old and new.
Let no malice linger, no stain remain,
Let no malice linger, in sun or rain.
By the Earth's soft touch, I vow,
By the Earth, and even now,
Gather, sit together, mend the ties,
Gather, sit together, mend the ties,
Gather, sit together, mend the ties.

Gather, sit together, mend the ties,
Gather, sit together, mend the ties.
Gather, sit together, mend the ties,
Gather, sit together, mend the ties.
If a grievance stirs, a whispered plight,
Gather, sit and council, find the light.
Let no court's cold gavel resound,
Seek the hearth, where solace is found.
Let no courthouse darken your door,
Heal within, and nothing more.
Do not magnify the small, the slight,
Do not let molehills steal the light.
By the Earth's embrace, I implore,
By the Earth, and evermore,
Gather, sit together, mend the ties,
Gather, sit together, mend the ties,
Gather, sit together, mend the ties.
