This Hidden Word is sung by Mei Swan Lim.

My Claim on Thee is Great

Inspired by the Baha'i writings and just feeling happy. This tune has been around in my head for a while but this is a slightly different version, its unfinished of course..... 

I was using a Camac 36 string Electroharp and good old garage band.

Illumine me with the brightness of Thy spirit,
Illumine me with the radiance of Thy love.
Cause me to be devoted to Thy beauty,
Cause me to be devoted to Thy love.

Illumine Me

O my God!  O my God!  Unite the hearts of Thy servants, and reveal to them Thy great purpose.  May they follow Thy commandments and abide in Thy law.  Help them, O God, in their endeavor, and grant them strength to serve Thee.  O God!  Leave them not to themselves, but guide their steps by the light of Thy knowledge, and cheer their hearts by Thy love.  Verily, Thou art their Helper and their Lord.

Another 4am creation. Explains me sounding so dreamy heh. 
I totally recognise it is near impossible to recognise what words I am singing, but 
im certain the spiritual potency is ever present. 
Enjoy!

"Were ye to discover the hidden, the shoreless oceans of My incorruptible wealth, ye would, of a certainty, esteem as nothing the world, nay, the entire creation." - Bahá’u’lláh

Shoreless Oceans - ISGP Sydney Jan2013

"O SON OF BEING! With the hands of power I made thee and with the fingers of strength I created thee; and within thee have I placed the essence of My light. Be thou content with it and seek naught else, for My work is perfect and My command is binding. Question it not, nor have a doubt thereof." - Bahá’u’lláh

O Son Of Being!

Wert thou to speed through the immensity of space and traverse the expanse of heaven, yet thou wouldst find no rest save in submission to Our command and humbleness before Our Face.
