March 23, 2019, in Music > Studio Session, by

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 London, United Kingdom with Oisin and Bahiyyih Devine who sing “My Light Is in Thee” from the Writings of Baha’u’llah.

This song was filmed and recorded in London, United Kingdom, September, 2018.

Lyrics & Quote

O SON OF BEING! Thou art My lamp and My light is in thee. Get thou from it thy radiance and seek none other than Me. For I have created thee rich and have bountifully shed My favor upon thee.

Baha’u’llah
