[Intro] She enters where the old stones part A red thread tied around the heart [Verse 1] She keeps the names the kings erased The salt, the seed, the buried flame With open hands she gathers grief And gives the broken ground its name [Pre-Chorus] Not made to kneel, not made to tame She bears the blessing and the blame [Chorus] Great and terrible, she rises whole Mercy in her hands, a storm in her soul Mother of the wild, keeper of the door She gives life freely—and asks no throne Great and terrible, hear her name A sacred fire no fear can claim [Verse 2] She knows the weight of every birth The blood, the bread, the turning year She does not soften what is true She stands beside us without fear [Pre-Chorus] No borrowed crown, no borrowed light She is the dawn that survives the night [Chorus] Great and terrible, she rises whole Mercy in her hands, a storm in her soul Mother of the wild, keeper of the door She gives life freely—and asks no throne Great and terrible, hear her name A sacred fire no fear can claim [Bridge] When the last proud tower falls to dust When the loudest laws give way to rust She will still be tending what remains Calling every lost one home again [Final Chorus] Great and terrible, she rises whole Mercy in her hands, a storm in her soul Mother of the wild, keeper of the door She gives life freely—and asks no throne Great and terrible, hear her name A sacred fire no fear can claim Great and terrible—unbound, awake The earth remembers what she can make [Outro] She enters where the old stones part A red thread tied around the heart
