Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Before the word there burned a fire
Before the fire, a woman’s hand
Brigid walked between the well and forge
And taught the water how to stand
She never called the flame to follow
She simply knelt and let it rise
One small ember, gently sheltered
Still can light a thousand skies
[Pre-chorus]
She placed the ember in my keeping
Trusting gentle hands the same
Every feather set on water
Carries farther than its name
[Chorus]
I tend wisdom with gentle hands
Burning soft where the wild things land
Brigid’s fire, Brigid’s well
Ring by ring the stories swell
I don’t need to be the flood
Just the spark that wakes the blood
Be the Keeper of the flame
Be the Keeper of the flame
[Verse 2]
They said be loud to be remembered
Let the fire consume it all
But the forge don’t roar to be a wonder
It just answers every call
Every blade is shaped by patience
Every wound by staying near
Wisdom walks with steady footsteps
Love is simply being here
[Pre-Chorus]
She placed the ember in my keeping
Trusting gentle hands the same
Every feather set on water
Carries farther than its name
[Chorus]
I tend wisdom with gentle hands
Burning soft where the wild things land
Brigid’s fire, Brigid’s well
Ring by ring the stories swell
I don’t need to be the flood
Just the spark that wakes the blood
Be the Keeper of the flame
Be the Keeper of the flame
[Bridge]
(Spoken reverently)
Three flames:
the forge…
the hearth…
the poem…
Three waters:
healing…
birth…
home…
I am not the fire
That conquers wood
I am the fire
That calls you home
[Final Chorus]
I tend wisdom with gentle hands
Every ripple finds its land
Brigid’s fire, Brigid’s well
Long after us the stories swell
I don’t need to be the flood
Just the spark that wakes the blood
Be the Keeper of the flame
Be the Keeper of the flame
Carry the flame
Carry it home
