Immeasurably exalted art Thou, O Lord! Protect us from what lieth in front of us and behind us, above our heads, on our right, on our left, below our feet and every other side to which we are exposed. Verily Thy protection over all things is unfailing. Selections from the Writings of The Báb, page 171-172

My Beloved 04:52
English O God, my God, my Beloved, my heart’s Desire. Spanish Oh Dios, mi Dios, mi Bienamado, el Deseo de mi corazón. Chorus ‘The Báb, the Exalted One, is the Morn of Truth…’ (‘Abdu’l-Bahá, The World Order of Bahá’u’lláh, p. 127) Swahili Ee Mungu, Mungu Wangu, Mpendwa Wangu, Na Haja Ya Moyo Wangu Chinese Shàng di ā, wõ de shàng di a! wo de suõ ài a, wo xin de ke wàng. 上帝啊,我的上帝啊!我的所爱,我心的渴望! Italian O Dio, mio dio, mio Diletto, Desiderio del mio cuore. French Ô Dieu, mon Dieu! mon Bien-Aimé, Désir de mon coeur. Ya Baha’u’l-Abha The Dawn-Breakers
3.
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. Selections from the Writings of The Báb, page 74

Bestow on me such good as will make me independent of aught else but Thee, and grant me an ampler share of Thy boundless favours. Selections from the Writings of The Báb, page 209

English Is there any Remover of difficulties save God? Say: Praised be God! He is God! All are His servants and all abide by His bidding!

Thou art nearer unto all things than all things. The Bab, Selections from the Writings of the Bab, p. 195 I am the Primal Point, from which have been generated all created things… I am the Countenance of God Whose splendor can never be obscured, the light of God whose radiance can never fade… The World Order of Bahá’u’lláh, page 126 I am the Mystic Fane, which the Hand of Omnipotence hath reared. I am the Lamp which the Finger of God hath lit within its niche and caused to shine with deathless splendor. I am the Flame of that supernal Light that glowed upon Sinai in the gladsome Spot, and lay concealed in the midst of the Burning Bush. The World Order of Bahá’u’lláh, page 126 Verily I am the ‘Gate of God’ and I give you to drink, by the leave of God, the sovereign Truth, of the crystal-pure waters of His Revelation which are gushing out from the incorruptible Fountain situate upon the Holy Mount. Selections from the Writings of The Báb, page 50 I am, I am, I am the Promised One! I am the One whose name you have for a thousand years invoked, at whose mention you have risen, whose advent you have longed to witness, and the hour of whose Revelation you have prayed God to hasten. The Dawn-Breakers, page 315-316
7.
For unto Thee have I raised my hands, O Lord, and in Thee have I found sheltering support, O Lord, and unto Thee have I resigned myself, O Lord, and upon Thee have I placed my whole reliance, O Lord, and by Thee am I strengthened, O Lord. Selections from the Writings of the Báb, page 218
8.
Arabic Ghol Allah u yakfi, anko le shayan Ghol Allah u yakfi, anko le shayan Va allah he fal, ya tava kelo Mote va ke loon, ya tava kelo, mote va ke loon English God is sufficient unto me. He is the All-Sufficing. Let the trusting trust Him. A prayer from The Báb
9.
O Lord! Enable all the peoples of the earth to gain admittance into the Paradise of Thy Faith, so that no created being may remain beyond the bounds of Thy good-pleasure. From time immemorial Thou hast been potent to do what pleaseth Thee and transcendent above whatsoever Thou desirest. Selections from the Writings of the Báb, page 74
10.
I am preparing you for the advent of a mighty Day… Scatter throughout the length and breadth of this land, and, with steadfast feet and sanctified hearts, prepare the way for His coming. Heed not your weaknesses and frailty; fix your gaze upon the invincible power of the Lord, your God, the Almighty... Arise in His name, put your trust wholly in Him, and be assured of ultimate victory. The Dawn-Breakers, page 93
