my heart has finally found a home

(capo 5) Dm Am C G

O ESSENCE OF NEGLIGENCE! 
Myriads of mystic tongues find utterance 
in one speech, 

and myriads of hidden mysteries are revealed 
in a single melody; 

yet, alas, there is no ear to hear, nor heart to understand.


Recorded at Sydney ISGP Undergraduate Seminar

O Essence Of Negligence (Remastered) - jtdubss

"I know not, O my God, what the Fire is which Thou didst kindle in Thy land. Earth can never cloud its splendor, nor water quench its flame. All the peoples of the world are powerless to resist its force. Great is the blessedness of him that hath drawn nigh unto it, and heard its roaring." - Bahá’u’lláh

Chords: Em D Bm A

Heard Its Roaring - ISGP Sydney Dec 2015

C G D Emin

"Thou knowest, O God, and art my witness that I have no desire in my heart save to attain Thy good pleasure, to be confirmed in servitude unto Thee, to consecrate myself in Thy service, to labor in Thy great vineyard and to sacrifice all in Thy path. 

I have no wish save to turn my steps, in my love for Thee, towards the mountains and the deserts to loudly proclaim the advent of Thy Kingdom, and to raise Thy call amidst all men.

 I have no occupation save mention of Thee and no aspiration save serving Thee."

ISGP QLD 2018 - Aspiration

This song called “Thy Confirmations”, is the eighth 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:

“Help me to triumph by the hosts of Thy glorious kingdom, and shower upon me Thy confirmations, which alone can change a gnat into an eagle, a drop of water into rivers and seas, and an atom into lights and suns? O my Lord!”
-Abdu’l-Baha

PARADISE:

C            G
O lord make me, just an empty cup

F            C                   G
With my head hung low and my hands held up

C            G
All my treasures and all my days

F             C          G
I would gladly give for a single gaze

My heart has finally found a home

C            Em    F
Here in Paradise, here in Paradi - ise

My heart has finally found a home

C             Em    F
Here in Paradise, here in Paradi - ise

C             G
If I lay my spirit at your feet

F             C            G
If I give my body to the endless sea

C             G
I would burn away like Breakwell did

F             C       G
I would give my praise by the life I live

My heart has finally found a home

My heart has finally found a home
