May we all follow Thy pathway, long
for Thy good pleasure and seek the mysteries of Thy kingdom. O God! Unite
us and connect our hearts with Thy indissoluble bond. Verily, Thou art the
Giver, Thou art the Kind One and Thou art the Almighty.
--'Abdu'l-Baha
"O Thou kind Lord! O Thou Who art generous..."
O Thou kind Lord! O Thou Who art generous and merciful! We are servants of
Thy threshold and are gathered beneath the sheltering shadow of Thy divine
unity. The sun of Thy mercy is shining upon all, and the clouds of Thy
bounty shower upon all. Thy gifts encompass all, Thy loving providence
sustains all, Thy protection overshadows all, and the glances of Thy favor
are cast upon all. O Lord! Grant Thine infinite bestowals, and let the
light of Thy guidance shine. Illumine the eyes, gladden the hearts with
abiding joy. Confer a new spirit upon all people and bestow upon them
eternal life. Unlock the gates of true understanding and let the light of
faith shine resplendent. Gather all people beneath the shadow of Thy
bounty and cause them to unite in harmony, so that they may become as the
rays of one sun, as the waves of one ocean, and as the fruit of one tree.
