Duration: 3 min 58 s
Description: "Whither shall I turn, O my God, powerless as I am to discover any other way except the way Thou didst set before Thy chosen Ones? All the atoms of the earth proclaim Thee to be God, and testify that there is none other God besides Thee." - Bahá’u’lláh

If One Teaches - Haylee

I Adjure Thee

1-Once I was in a place
With those who knew not grace,
With such company I dwelled.
Then, the Lord brought me to,
Be with those who pursued,
There, this is what I beheld:

	Singing and praising!
	Enjoying and thanking,
	And loving the Lord Jesus Christ!
	Blessing Him! Sharing Him!
	Giving all to Him!
	And being filled up with His life!

2-My eyes could not believe
Not did I e'er concieve,
Such a blessed place could be found.
Though first I did resist,
Their joy could not be missed,
I joined that wonderful sound...

3-God, as a fountain free
Then was so real to me
My heart no longer was dry.
Today it is the same,
His flow I still can claim.
I receive it simply by...

4-This world has nothing new
To give to me or you,
Its joy is momentary.
It has no benefit,
Don't be deceived by it!
The best is for you to be...

5-How bless'd it is to be,
Freed from all vanity,
The Lord has shown me mercy.
Now where He sends — I go,
And this one thing I know—
I will be eternally...

1-Una vez estuve en un lugar
Con aquellos que no conocían la gracia,
Con tal compañía habité,
Y Entonces, el Señor me trajo a,
Estar con aquellos que Lo persiguen,
Allí…esto es lo que yo contemplo.

¡Cantando y alabando!
Disfrutando y agradeciendo,
¡Y amando al Señor Jesucristo!
¡Bendiciéndolo! ¡Compartiéndolo!
¡Dándole todo a Él!
¡Siendo lleno de Su vida!

2-Mis ojos no podían creerlo
No lo podía creer,
Que se podría encontrar un lugar tan bendecido.
Aunque primero me resistí,
No podía perder su alegría,
Me uní a ese maravilloso sonido...

3-Dios, como una fuente libre
fue entonces tan real a mí
Mi corazón ya no estaba seco.
Hoy es lo mismo,
y puedo recibir Su fluir,
Y simplemente lo recibo.

4-Este mundo no tiene nada nuevo
Para darte a ti o a mi,
Su alegría es momentánea.
No tiene ningún beneficio,
Es lo mejor para ti.
¡Que no seas engañado por el mundo!

5-Qué bendición es ser,
Liberado de toda vanidad,
El Señor me ha mostrado misericordia.
Ahora a donde Él me envía, voy,
Y esta es lo único que yo sé...
que estaré por la eternidad…
