'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.

LYRICS & CHORDS: 

PARADISE:

C            G
O lord make me, just an empty cup

F            C                   G
With my head hung low and my hands held up

C            G
All my treasures and all my days

F             C          G
I would gladly give for a single gaze

F            Am
My heart has finally found a home

C            Em    F
Here in Paradise, here in Paradi - ise

F            Am
My heart has finally found a home

C             Em    F
Here in Paradise, here in Paradi - ise

C             G
If I lay my spirit at your feet

F             C            G
If I give my body to the endless sea

C             G
I would burn away like Breakwell did

F             C       G
I would give my praise by the life I live

My heart has finally found a home

C              Em    F
Here in Paradise, here in Paradi - ise

F             Am
My heart has finally found a home

C             Em     F
Here in Paradise, here in Paradi - ise  x 2
