“Make Us Rich in Thee” by Nica

Baha’i Blog’s “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 Bristol, United Kingdom with Nica who sings “Make Us Rich in Thee” from the Writings of Baha’u’llah.

This song was filmed and recorded in Bristol, United Kingdom, May 2018.

Lyrics & Quote

Glory be to Thee, O God, for Thy manifestation of love to mankind! O Thou Who art our Life and Light, guide Thy servants in Thy way, and make us rich in Thee and free from all save thee.
O God, teach us Thy Oneness and give us a realization of Thy Unity, that we may see no one save Thee. Thou art the merciful and the Giver of bounty!
O God, create in the hearts of Thy beloved the fire of Thy love, that it may consume the thought of everything save Thee.
Reveal to us, O God, Thine exalted eternity — that Thou hast ever been and will ever be, and that there is no God save Thee. Verily, in Thee will we find comfort and strength.

Baha’u’llah
