“So Powerful ” by Nik, Matty, Maureen & Howard

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 Edinburgh, in the United Kingdom with Nik, Matty Morrissey, Maureen Hunter, and Howard who sing “So Powerful” based on the Writings of Baha’u’llah. 

This song was filmed and recorded in Edinburgh, in the United Kingdom in April 2023.

LYRICS/QUOTES:

O MY FRIEND IN WORD!

Ponder awhile. Hast thou ever heard that friend and foe should abide in one heart? Cast out then the stranger, that the Friend may enter His home.

So powerful is the light of unity that it can illuminate the whole earth.

​​The essence of understanding is to testify to one’s poverty, and submit to the Will of the Lord…

CHORDS:

Dm Bb7 A F A  Bb7 F A Gm A

O My Friend in Word! Ponder a while. Hast thou ever heard that friend and foe should abide in one heart? Cast out then the stranger, that the Friend may enter His home

So powerful is the light of unity that it can illuminate the whole earth

The essence of understanding is to testify to one's poverty, and submit to the Will of the Lord

So powerful is the light of unity that it can illuminate the whole earth.
