“Where There Is Love” by Poppy & Todd

May 21, 2024, in Music > Studio Session, by

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 Melbourne, Australia with Poppy Carmelle and Todd McNeal who sing “Where There Is Love” based on the Writings of Abdu’l-Baha and Baha’u’llah. 

This song was composed by Poppy Carmelle.

This song was filmed and recorded in Melbourne, Australia in November 2023.

LYRICS/QUOTE:

Where there is love nothing is too trouble and there is always time.

And: 

Thou art My lamp and My light is in thee. Get thou from it thy radiance and seek none other than Me.

CHORDS:

Chords: G#maj7, Gmin7, Cmin7, Fmin7, G major 

Where there is love  

Nothing, nothing is too much trouble 

Where there is love 

Nothing, nothing is too much, is too much, is too much 

And there is always time  

Thou art my lamp, thou art my lamp and my light is in thee x3 

Get thou from it thy radiance, and seek none other than me x3
