Have mercy on me, O Lord, in
these days when the peoples of Thine earth have erred grievously; supply
me then, O my God, with that which is good and seemly in Thine estimation.
Thou art, verily, the All-Powerful, the Gracious, the Bountiful, the
Ever-Forgiving.
Grant, O my God, that I may not be reckoned among those whose ears are
deaf, whose eyes are blind, whose tongues are speechless and whose hearts
have failed to comprehend. Deliver me, O Lord, from the fire of ignorance
and of selfish desire, suffer me to be admitted into the precincts of Thy
transcendent mercy and send down upon me that which Thou hast ordained for
Thy chosen ones. Potent art Thou to do what Thou willest. Verily, Thou art
the Help in Peril, the Self-Subsisting.
--The Bab
"Praised and glorified art Thou, O God! Grant..."
Praised and glorified art Thou, O God! Grant that the day of attaining Thy
holy presence may be fast approaching. Cheer our hearts through the
potency of Thy love and good-pleasure, and bestow upon us steadfastness
that we may willingly submit to Thy Will and Thy Decree. Verily, Thy
knowledge embraceth all the things Thou hast created or wilt create, and
Thy celestial might transcendeth whatsoever Thou hast called or wilt call
into being.
