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?


The 2022 World Conferences held across Queensland are just a few of the hundreds of global conferences taking place after being called for by the Universal House of Justice.

What Kind of World

What Kind Of World - Music from the 2022 World Conferences of Queensland

G  Em  D  C
I have made death a messenger of joy to thee
Wherefore dost thou grieve, I made the light to shed on thee its splendor
Why dost thou veil thyself therefrom, O son of the supreme


Messenger of Joy

"O MAN OF TWO VISIONS! Close one eye and open the other. Close one to the world and all that is therein, and open the other to the hallowed beauty of the Beloved"
   -Baha'u'llah, Hidden Words

O Man of two visions

"O SON OF BEING! Make mention of Me on My earth, that in My heaven I may remember thee, thus shall Mine eyes and thine be solaced."
  -Baha'u'llah, Hidden Words

Make mention of Me on My earth.wav

"Remember My days during thy days, and My distress and banishment in this remote prison. And be thou so steadfast in My love that thy heart shall not waver, even if the swords of the enemies rain blows upon thee and all the heavens and the earth arise against thee."
   -Baha'u'llah

Remember My Days

I adjure Thee by Thy might, O my God!  Let no harm beset me in times of tests, and in moments of heedlessness guide my steps aright through Thine inspiration.  Thou art God, potent art Thou to do what Thou desirest. No one can withstand Thy Will or thwart Thy Purpose.
   -The Bab

I Adjure Thee

O son of Man.wav

Unite The Hearts Of Thy Servants

Chords: A E

O Thou kind Lord!  Unite all.  Let the religions agree and make the nations one, 
so that they may see each other as one family and the whole earth as one home.  
May they all live together in perfect harmony. O Thou kind Lord!  Unite all.  x2

Unite All

This song called “Turn”, is the tenth song in a collection of 10 songs called ‘Music Inspired by the Heroes Teaching Conference’.

In April this year, some 1,000 Baha’is and like-minded friends from all over Southern Queensland and Northern New South Wales, Australia, gathered together in the city of Brisbane to attend a historic conference aimed to help its participants find their place in service to Baha’u’llah and humanity.

The conference was called ‘The Heroes Teaching Conference’, and woven throughout the two-day program were beautiful songs performed by conference participants who were inspired by stories of heroism in the Baha’i Faith’s history, and from the spirit generated at the event. Within a few weeks after the conference, these songs were recorded live in a music studio in Brisbane, and we’re so excited to share this wonderful collection of inspiring songs!

Here is the quote from the Baha’i Writings used for the lyrics of the song:

“My God, my Adored One, my King, my Desire!  What tongue can voice my thanks to Thee?  I was heedless, Thou didst awaken me.  I had turned back from Thee, Thou didst graciously aid me to turn towards Thee.”
-Baha’u’llah

Thy Confirmations - Music inspired by the Heroes Teaching Conference

'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 is the quote used for the lyrics:

"Verily God loveth those who, as though they were a solid wall, do battle for His Cause in serried lines!"  -Abdu'l-Baha
