I've set out from my home, holding fast unto the cord The cord of Thy love I have committed myself wholly to Thy care and protection I entrant Thee by Thy power by which Thou does protect Thy loved ones From the wayward and the perverse And from every contumacious oppressor And every wicked doer who has strayed far from Thee To keep me safe , by Thy bounty and Thy grace And enable me then , to return to my home by Thy power and Thy might Thou art ,truely , the Almighty The help in peril , the Self-subsisting

O my God ,O my God Thou sets me In my lowliness and weakness Occupied with the greatest undertaking Determined to raise Thy word among the masses And to read Thy teachings among Thy people How can I succeed unless Thou assist me With the breaths of the Holy Spirit Help me to triumph by ....The hosts of Thy glorious kingdom And shower upon me Thy confirmations Which alone can change a gnat into and eagle A drop of water into rivers and seas An atom into lights and suns O my Lord O my Lord assist me With Thy triumphant and effective might So that my tongue may utter Thy praises And attributes among all people And mob soul overflow with the wine of Thy love And overflow with the Wine of Th knowledge Thou art the omnipotent and the Der of whatsoever ever Thou willest How can I succeed unless Thou assist me x3

6.	Gems 04:36	lyrics	buy track
One day I came across ...a treasure trove of gems Some pearls of wisdom ...drops of nectar from the pen Of the mystic beauty I was impelled to write them down.. And turn them into songs and sing them right out loud From the mountain top..so that all souls can hear I recognised that wisdom ..those holy words create From beyond the stars ..like a bolt of light or a spark From the sun of reality..shinning down on me I was floating in the darkness of my lost and lonely ways So I tried to reach out and I tried to look within To the very source of my being I was suspended somewhere in-between Heaven and Earth like a boat tossed upon the sea The ever changing sea ..of life surrounding me I have a sense that You are near and I'm hungry for Your love And I am very needy to find that treasure trove But when I reach out in my loneliness and try to find You there to put my heart at rest And my desire is to be seeing The very source of my being My beloved my light ...my guid in the dark night I long to see the signs that I can trust with certainty I feel I have been touched by , the lights and the radiance Reflected in Your person and showered upon all men Even this world I know is still a mystery How can I really know ...about eternity Without the grace..of Your manifest Faith Of this world and the world beyond The sun of Reality O my beloved Blessed beauty x r
7.	The Covenant 04:32	lyrics	buy track
The most great characteristic of ...this revelation Never given by any other prophet To ensure unity...and agreement of the people A covenant with all the people of the world The interpreter and explainer ...of His teachings Abdu'l-Baha x 4 No sects no personal opinions..and no fancies No one shall speak from the authority of self Should he do so...he will...be degraded And bring this upon himself Baha'u'llah has written ...in His books of splendour "When I'm gone ..turn your faves towards Towards the branch of this ...ancient root Abdu'l-Baha x 4 Not every sea has pearls ...not every branch will flower The nightingale will not sing on every branch Catch the fragrance from ...the everlasting garden Denied in this dust heap of this mortal world Live in the shadow of the people of this city Come to there highest station Come to the mightiest plane..gaze on the Beloved and... Forget about every thing else Thou hast revealed Thy cause and ...fulfilled Thy Covenant Open wide the door of Thy grace To all that dwell in heaven and ...to all that dwell on earth To all that dwell on heaven and earth The mightiest pillar is learning ...and the use of the mind The centre of His Covenant ...is Abdu'l-Baha The interpreter and explainer...of His teachings Abdu'l-Baha x 4 The most great characteristic of ...this revelation Never given by any other prophet To ensure unity...and agreement of the people A covenant with all the people of the world
8.	Thou Art He 02:27	lyrics	buy track
Thou art he ....who changeth Through His budding ...abasement into glory And weakness into strength...and powerlessness into might And fear into calm.....and doubt into certainty No God is there but Thee...the Mighty , the Beneficent No Gos is there but Thee The Mighty ...the Beneficent
9.	Wedding Song 04:51	lyrics	buy track
Take my hand ....don't let go as we walk ...down this road This road of dust ...this road of pain..

Sometimes coral ...sometimes pearls And from the mountain ...we can see far We'll climb together ...now here we are The same path ...the same road.. And if you are ready ...then let us go CH Take my hand ....don't let go as we walk ...down this road This road of dust ...this road of pain.. Through the sunshine ...and through the rain Hand in hand ...in God we'll trust We'll help each other ...in this we must CH...

11.	Teaching Deeply 03:37	lyrics	buy track
Prepare for teaching ...be planed and systematic Make sure ...yuo're deepened in your faith Know the language and culture of the people that you're with Use you're initiative Nothing should deter you...put you're trust in God The Virtues and love Bahá'u'lláh With complete detachment ...find the best approach For the people you are in contact with Find like-minded organisations Give lectures on related topics On youth, on music an education Find a way to make your talents fit Don't forget the parents of the people that you're teaching It's best to have so talks with them Show then the dignity and station of the Faith And how it will benefit their kin Don't stop ....till that person has arisen to teach Independently..... Teach, teach , teach and accompany them Till they are strong in their Faith Increase the diversity of the Faith Fewness of numbers do not mind Keep in touch with like minded agencies They are the harvest of the field Form Bahai centres ...wherever you go Make them as beacons of light Beacons of light to a breaking down world And havens from the coming storms In teaching ..if anyone responds to you're call Give him the pearls of wisdom Give him the pearls of the wisdom of God Otherwise ...just turn away from him x R Prepare for teaching ...be planed and systematic Make sure ...yuo're deepened in your faith
12.	This is Faith 04:25	lyrics	buy track
To walk where there is no path To breathe where there is no air To see where there is not light This is Faith This is Faith x 4 To cry out in silence.....the silence of the night And hearing no echo believe...and believe again and again This is Faith x 4 To hold pebbles and see jewels... To raise sticks and see Forrests too To smile with seeping eyes...This is Faith This is Faith x 4 To say God "I believe"....when others deny To hear when there is no answer...To see though naught is seen This is Faith x 4 And the fierce love in the heart...The savage love that cries Hidden Thou art yet there Vale thy face and mute thy tongue Yet I see and hear Thee Love...beat me down to bear earth Yet I rise and love Thee Love...This is Faith This is Faith x @

14.	Say to Assist Me 03:36	lyrics	buy track
Say to assist Me is to teach my cause This is a theme with which ...whole tablets are laden This is the changeless commandment of God Eternal in the past ...eternal in the future Be not dismayed O peoples of the world When the Daystar of My star is set And the tabernacle of My beauty is concealed ...from your eyes Arise the exalt My Cause..and exalt My word amongst men We are with you at all times... And shall strengthen you through the power of truth The pen of the most high hath decreed The obligation to teach His Cause..God will no doubt inspire Whosoever detaches himself from all else but Him And will cause the pure waters of wisdom And utterance to gush out and flow copiously from his heart We are with you at all times and shall strengthen you through the power Of truth Say to assist Me is to teach my cause This is a theme with which ...whole tablets are laden This is the changeless commandment of God Eternal in the past ...eternal in the future
