I did not compose this beautiful song :-)  
I believe that it was composed by one or more Bahá'í friends in Australia
This is the link to the original song, from Bahá'í Blog: https://youtu.be/L_Np-yo5wyU?si=StruExDpTii8QWVh
Thank you for this special, beautiful piece of music.
This song always reminds me of when we would sing it together in the dorms♥︎

Here is the quotation used for the lyrics below followed by the quotation and chords:
 
“O Lord! Unto Thee I repair for refuge, and toward all Thy signs I set my heart.
O Lord! Whether traveling or at home, and in my occupation or in my work, I place my whole trust in Thee.
Grant me then Thy sufficing help so as to make me independent of all things, O Thou Who art unsurpassed in Thy mercy!
Bestow upon me my portion, O Lord, as Thou pleasest, and cause me to be satisfied with whatsoever Thou hast ordained for me.
Thine is the absolute authority to command.”
- The Bab
