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 Perth, Australia with Timmi who sing “Tender Seedling (Prayer for Children)” based on the Writings of Abdu’l-Baha.
This song was filmed and recorded in Perth, Australia in December 2023.
O Lord! Plant this tender seedling in the garden of Thy manifold bounties, water it from the fountains of Thy loving-kindness and grant that it may grow into a goodly plant through the outpourings of Thy favour and grace. Thou art the Mighty and the Powerful.
