Original poem written by Rúhíyyih Khánum, expressing her firm and unwavering faith in God after the passing of her beloved husband, Shoghi Effendi.

To walk where there is no path,
To breathe where there is no air,
To see where there is no light-
This is Faith.
To cry out in the silence,
The silence of the night,
And hearing no echo believe
And believe again and again
This is Faith.
To hold pebbles and see jewels
To raise sticks and see forests
To smile with weeping eyes
This is Faith.
To Say: ‘God, I believe’ when others deny,
‘I hear’ when there is no answer,
‘I see’ though naught is seen-
This is Faith.
And the fierce love in the heart,
The savage love that cries Hidden
Thou art yet there!
Veil thy face and mute thy tongue
Yet I see and hear Thee, Love,
Beat me down to the bare earth,
Yet I rise and love Thee, Love!
This is Faith.
                        
~ Rúhíyyih Khánum

Prayer:

O Lord! Unto Thee I repair for refuge, and toward all Thy signs I set my heart.
O Lord!  Whether traveling or at home, and in my occupation or in my work, I place my whole trust in Thee.
Grant me then Thy sufficing help so as to make me independent of all things, O Thou Who art unsurpassed in Thy mercy!
Bestow upon me my portion, O Lord, as Thou pleasest, and cause me to be satisfied with whatsoever Thou hast ordained for me.
Thine is the absolute authority to command.

Prayer:

"Verily, Thou art the Lord of all created things. Thou dost suffice everyone, while no one can be self-sufficient without Thee."

"No helper do I know of other than Thee. No refuge do I have to flee to save Thee. None among Thy creatures can dare to intercede with Thyself without Thy leave. I hold fast to Thy love before Thy court, and, according to Thy bidding, I earnestly pray unto Thee as befitteth Thy glory."
