Ridvan celebrates Baha’u’llah’s time in 1863 in the garden of Ridvan in Baghdad when He publicly declared His station as a Manifestation of God. The Ridvan Festival is 12 days long and is also the time of year when Baha’is elect their governing bodies.
Baha’i Blog Studio Sessions is an initiative where we invite Baha’is and their friends from around the world to come into a studio and share the Baha’i Writings put to music.
In this Baha’i Blog Studio Session, we’re in Seattle, USA with The PNW Crew singing “Loose My Tongue” based on the Writings of Abdu’l-Baha.
The PNW Crew are Olivia Rahbin, Shay Morris-Doty, Ai Ana Richmond, Saba Najafi, Camila Matamala-Ost, Rob Domos, Yosi Mesbah, Aaron Ferguson, Sina Najafi, Nikka Malakooti, Samin Bahizad, and Ben Spriggs.
This song was filmed and recorded in Seattle, USA in August 2019.
Lyrics & Quote
Loose my tongue to laud Thy name amidst Thy people, that my voice may be raised in great assemblies and from my lips may stream the flood of Thy praise.
Abdu’l-Baha
