“This Earthly Plane” by Richard Leigh

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, in the United Kingdom with Richard Leigh who sings “This Earthly Plane” from the Writings of Baha’u’llah.

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

Here is the quotation used for the lyrics below, followed by a link to the sheet music for this piece:

Lyrics & Quote

O My servants! Sorrow not if, in these days and on this earthly plane, things contrary to your wishes have been ordained and manifested by God, for days of blissful joy, of heavenly delight, are assuredly in store for you. Worlds, holy and spiritually glorious, will be unveiled to your eyes. You are destined by Him, in this world and hereafter, to partake of their benefits, to share in their joys, and to obtain a portion of their sustaining grace. To each and every one of them you will, no doubt, attain.

Baha’u’llah
