As a proudly Australian initiative, we’re excited to showcase a collection of Australian stories, music, tributes and more.
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 Brisbane, Australia with Joseph Duckmanton who sings “Make Haste” based on the Writings of Abdu’l-Baha.
This song was filmed and recorded in Brisbane, Australia in August 2023.
O my Lord, my Defender, my Help in Peril! Lowly do I entreat Thee, ailing do I
come unto Thee to be healed, humbly do I cry out to Thee with my tongue, my soul,
my spirit […]
Make haste to love! Make haste to trust! Make haste to give! To guidance come!
Come ye for harmony! To behold the Star of Day! Come here for kindliness, for
ease! Come here for amity and peace!
Come and cast down your weapons of wrath, till unity is won! Come and in the
Lord’s true path each one help each one.
