love these talks. but just be aware often in this track there are constant noises.  paper rustling, pens clicking. etc. very difficult to focus on the speaker  since those noises are so close to the mic

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
