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 Cairns, Australia with Nabil Yagan and Felix Kerry who sing “O Befriended Stranger” based on the Writings of Baha’u’llah.
This song was filmed and recorded in Cairns, Australia in December 2023.
O Befriended Stranger! The candle of thine heart is lighted by the hand of My power, quench it not with the contrary winds of self and passion. The healer of all thine ills is remembrance of Me, forget it not. Make My love thy treasure and cherish it even as thy very sight and life.

O Befriended Stranger! The candle of thine heart is lighted
by the hands of My power. Quench it not with the
contrary winds of self and passion. The healer of all
thine ills is remembrance of me, remembrance of me.
Forget it not make My love thy treasure, and cherish it,
even as thy very sight and life, and cherish it, even as thy
very sight and life, and cherish it, even as thy very sight
and life.
