This song was filmed and recorded at Louie Shelton’s home studio in the Gold Coast, Australia, July 2015.

Here is the quotation used for the lyrics below, followed by the quote with the chords:

“O thou lamp who art enkindled with the fire of the Love of God!
Verily, I read thy recent letter which showed thy strong love, thy being ablaze with the fire of the love of thy Lord, the Mighty, the Praised, and the penetration of the Spirit of Truth in thy limbs, nerves, veins, arteries, bones, blood and flesh, until it hath taken the reins of power from thy hands and moveth thee as it willeth, causeth thee to speak in what it willeth and attracteth thee as it willeth. This is becoming of whatever heart is replenished with the spirit of the love of God. Thou shalt surely behold wondrous traces and shalt discover the signs of thy Mighty Lord.”  
                                    -Abdu’l-Baha

Em9(omit 5)   Dadd11(omit f)/G   F#madd11(#5)  A7    (repeat)
O thou lamp who art enkindled with the fire of the Love of God!
Verily, I read thy recent letter which showed thy strong love 
Thy being ablaze with the fire of the love of thy Lord 
The Mighty, the Praised, and the penetration of the Spirit of Truth 
Ooooh, of Truth

A6add11  A/B  Gma7  G/A (repeat) 
The fire, the fire
The fire of the love of thy Lord  
The fire, the fire (the Mighty, the Praised) 
The fire of the love of thy Lord (and the penetration of the Spirit)

Em9(omit 5)   Dadd11(omit f)/G   F#madd11(#5)  A7  (repeat)
Of Truth
Ooooh, of Truth

Em9(omit 5)   Dadd11(omit f)/G   F#madd11(#5)  A7    (repeat)
In thy limbs, nerves, veins, arteries, bones, blood and flesh 
Until the reins of power have been taken from thy hands and 
Moveth thee as it willeth, causeth thee to speak in what it willeth 
And attracteth thee as it willeth 
This is becoming of whatever heart is replenished 
With the spirit of the love of God thou shalt surely behold 
Wondrous traces and shalt discover the signs 
Of thy Mighty Lord
