Vision 04:02
Those who chant the verses of the Merciful, in the most melodious tones, will attain unto that/ the kingdom of earth and heaven can never compare. They will inhale therefrom/ the fragrance of my realm which none can discern in this day save those who have been granted ......Vision. By this sublime Beauty.... say verily the verses of the merciful /uplift the stainless hearts... unto those realms of spirit /which cannot be described in words or expressed in symbols... blessed are they the harken.......... to the Vision

Burning Bush 03:30
There's a burning bush on a mountain in central Asia.... And all the broken idols , lie scattered on the ground There's a burning bush in Central Asia, And a broken tablet lying on the ground There's a spreading tree in a small town in Northern India And underneath that tree was a man who found The Way There's a reading tree in Northern India Now see the twisted branches in dis-array There's a cycle moon and star in the sky over Central Arabia The prophet taught the people , how to stop the fights There a cycle moon and star over Arabia But the people fight each other just the same There's a wooden cross on a hill in Jerusalem And here the Son of God cried out in His despair There's a wooden cross on a hill in Jerusalem Now so many mothers sons are in despair Now there are twin stars , shining in the heavens The Bab and Baha'u'llah shine for us the way Now there are twin stars shining in the heavens The light from these twin stars guides us today The purpose of the soul , is to make connection With 'He ,whom God , will make manifest" The purpose of the soul is to make connection With the Messengers sent to us for this Age

The Fountain 03:56
The fountain of generosity is gushing forth.. But we must have thirst for the living waters... Unless there be thirst, ..the salutary waters will not flow.. Unless the soul hungers ,delicious food of the Heavenly table Will not give sustanence Unless the eye of perception , be open The lights of the sun will not be witnessed Unless the nostrils are purified ,, the fragrance of The divine rose garden will not be inhaled Unless the heart is longing ...the favours of the Lord will not be evident.. The fountain of divine generosity x 2 The ocean of salubrious waters is surging If we be not thirsty What benefit do we receive If the candle be lighted and we have no eyes What enjoyment do we attain from it? If melodious anthems should rise up ...up to the heavens And we are bereft of hearing ..what enjoyment can we find The fountain of divine generosity x 2 The fountain of generosity is gushing forth But we must have thirst for the living waters

At All Times 04:52
At all times do I speak of you ...and call you to mind...... I pray unto the Lord......And with tears I implore Him to rain down All these blessings upon you .....And glades your hearts And make blissful your souls And grant you exceeding joy and heavenly delights Thus I exhort each one of you...To sacrifice all your thoughts All your thoughts words and action too To bring the knowledge of the love of God into every heart To bring the knowledge of the love of God into every heart inst. V1 repeat inst...

O God O God Thou seest my weakness lowliness and humility...among the servants, nevertheless, I have trusted in Thee...I have arisen in the promotion of Thy teachings Among Thy strong servants . Relying on Thy power and might O Lord I am a broken winged bird...... O Lord I'm a broken winged bird And desire to soar in Thy limitless space . How is it possible for me to do this Save through Thy providence and grace..... O Lord have pity on my weakness and strengthen me with Thy power Have pity on my impotence And strengthen me with Thy might and majesty... Whereas before I was a moth...Make me a royal facon... Whereas before I was a brook....make me as a might sea.. Through Thy bestowals and Thy bounty ....

He is the compassionate .....the all-bountiful....... O God my God ....Thou knows me Thou seest me Thou art my haven and my refuge / none other have I sought Nor any will I seek save Thee No path have I trod / Nor any will I tread But the path of Thy Love And in the darksome night ...of despair My eye turners Expectant full of hope To the morn of Thy boundless favour And at the hour of dawn.....My drooping soul .. .is refreshed and strengthened In remembrance of Thy beauty and perfection He home the grace....of Thy mercy aideth Though he be but a drop ...Shall become the boundless ocean And the merest atom ...which the outpouring of Thy loving kindness assisteth Shall shine even as....The radiant star Shelter under Thy protection ...O Thou spirit of purity Thou who art ....The all-bountiful provider This enthralled ....Enkindled servant of Thine Aid him in this world of being To remain steadfast and firm .....In Thy Love And grant this broken winged bird, gain a refuge and a shelter, in Thy divine nest which abides upon....... the celestial tree.....

Indulge not 03:20
Indulge not your bodies with rest ...but work with all your souls..... And with all your hearts cry out .....cry out and beg of God To grant you His succour and grace....His succour and grace CH Thus may you make this world ....the Abha paradise And this globe of Earth...the parade ground of The realm on hight If only you exert ...the effort it is certain That these splendours will shine out These clouds of mercy will shed down Shed down their rain These life giving winds will rise and blow This sweet smelling musk ...will be scattered far and wide CH Thus may you make this world ...The Abha paradise And this globe of Earth ...the parade ground of The realm on high

Undying Love 04:39
I will never leave you ..I hold you in my heart.. I do love you dearly and hope we never part... Though in time I may die....... but still my soul goes on.. Wherever I may journey your memory comes along ... And though I live yet again....a hundred lifetimes more... I will aways love you ,...you've touched me to the core... CH Undying love,.......that's what I feel for you ... Undying love is this a dream come true.. Undying love that flows to me from you...my spirit is renewed... I will never leave you although you're always free to go ... And if I ever choose to ,....still you'd love me so.... You have touched my very soul .....your love has shone it's light.. Into the darkest parts of me / and healed my lonely plight... Never shall I be the same for I have learned true wealth Thank you for teaching me to love you and to serve you Above myself CH

Shield Thy trusted servants from errors of self and passion.... Protect them with the wasteful eye ...of Thy loving kindness, From all rancour hate and envy... Shelter them in the impregnable Stronghold of Thy love..and safe from the darts of doubtfulness... Make them the manifestations of Thy glorious signs.. Illumen their faces,..........with the effulgent rays Shed from the despairing of Thy divine bounty... Gladden their hearts.... with the verses revealed from From Thy holy kingdom...strengthen their loins With Thy all-swaying power...power that comes from The realms of Thy glory Thou art the All-bountifull, the Protector the Almighty.. The Gracious

Lord Pitiful are we...grant us Thy favour... Poor, bestow upon us... a measure from the ocean of Thy wealth... Needy, satisfy us....abased, give us Thy glory... The fowls of the air the beasts of the field Receive their meat each day from Thee And all beings partake...... of Thy loving kindness... Deprive not this lowly one ..........of Thy wondrous grace And vouchsafe by Thy might Unto this helpless soul Thy bounty..... Give us our daily bread .....and grant Thine increase In the necessities of life... That we may be dependent on none other than Thee... May commune wholly with Thee, .....may walk in Thy ways And declare your mysteries...Thou art the loving provider Of all Mankind...Lord pitiful are we Grant us Thy favour
11.
I have risen this morning....by Thy grace O my God And leave my home trusting ...wholly in Thee And committing my self...... to Thy care.... Send down then upon me...Out of the heaven of Thy mercy A blessing from Thy side...And enable me To return home in safety ..even as Thou didst Enable me to set out ....Under Thy protection With my thoughts fixed steadfastly ..Upon Thee There is no other God but The ...The One the Incomparable There is no other God but Thee The All-knowing ....The All-wise
