Lyrics & Quote
O my God! O my God! Unite the hearts of Thy servants, and reveal to them Thy great purpose. May they follow Thy commandments and abide in Thy law. Help them, O God, in their endeavor, and grant them strength to serve Thee. O God! Leave them not to themselves, but guide their steps by the light of Thy knowledge, and cheer their hearts by Thy love. Verily, Thou art their Helper and their Lord.
Baha’u’llah

Soothing to my ears! Love this prayer a lot. A good daily reminder to us all when we go out to teach. Alláh-u-Abhá all the way from Malaysia 🙂

I’ve never heard this beautiful prayer that most of us knows by heart sung like that. So soothing to my ears. Thank you for sharing.
