Baha'i Blog is excited to share the song "What Kind of World" from "Music from the 2022 World Conferences of Queensland".

Watch the video recording of this song here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TKWUvOo6sqw

"Music from the 2022 World Conferences, Queensland" is a collection of seven songs which were performed at the three major 2022 World Conferences which took place across Queensland, Australia (Cairns, Gold Coast, Brisbane), and have now been professionally filmed and recorded in a studio.

Here are the lyrics to the song:

What kind of world will it be, when there is no cruelty and there is no greed

I see a world full of light, where there is no soldiers and no one to fight

Every soul as one, working together till the battle is won

Chorus

There’s a place for you, there’s a place for me, each one a wave, each one a sea

If we raise our hands, if we turn our hearts, to Baha’u’llah

What kind of world would it be?

Verse 2

What kind of world will we see, when I preferreth my brother to me

It is all in our hands, to be of service to our fellow man

All beating with one heart and we’re gonna make it if we just make a start

Chorus

There’s a place for you, there’s a place for me, each one a wave, each one a sea

If we raise our hands, if we turn our hearts, to Baha’u’llah

What kind of world would it be?

Bridge

With every soul alight, each one burning bright
A world where we can be one humanity oh what king of world would be it be

Chorus

There’s a place for you, there’s a place for me, each one a wave, each one a sea

If we raise our hands, if we turn our hearts, to Baha’u’llah

What kind of world would it be?

Am C G D

Be not dismayed, O peoples of the world,
when the day star of My beauty is set, 
and the heaven of My tabernacle is concealed
concealed from your eyes 
Arise to further My Cause, and to exalt My Word amongst men
We are with you at all times
and shall strengthen you through the power of truth
the power of truth x4

'Music inspired by the Heroes Teaching Conference' is a collection of songs inspired by and recorded in light of 'The Heroes Teaching Conference' (6-7 April, 2019). The conference was an historic gathering of over 1,000 Baha'i and like-minded friends from all over Southern Queensland and Northern New South Wales, Australia.

Organised by the Regional Baha'i Council and Board of Counsellors, the program aimed to help its participants find their place in service to Baha’u’llah and humanity, by drawing on the heroism of the past, inspiring them to arise, through humble service, and become heroes of the Faith for this age.

Here are the lyrics and chords for this song:
