Welcome to Friday Worship.
Today's worship is dedicated to the Greek Ishtar, Aphrodite and decorated with the glorious orgiastic art of Erich von Gotha


Glorious Aphrodite, my praise I offer you.
O mighty one, your irresistible p
ower
overwhelms us mortals; helpless we ob
ey you
and follow desire's demands despite a
ll good sense.
Through you, O goddess, do we see w
ith lovers' eyes
your own beauty reflected in our beloved.
Through you do new lovers welcome one another,
and old loves find their passio
n ever rekindled.
Aphrodite, whose gifts to humankind ar
e great;
who nurtures growing love in the harshest of soils;
who so quickly impassions unsus
pecting hearts;
Aphrodite--kind one, fierce one
--I honor you.
