Na Bahá’u’lláh



O my God! O my God! Unite the

hearts of Thy servants, and reveal

to them Thy great purpose. May they

follow Thy commandments and abide

in Thy law. Help them, O God, in their

endeavor, and grant them strength to

serve Thee. O God! Leave them not to

themselves, but guide their steps by the

light of Thy knowledge, and cheer their

hearts by Thy love. Verily, Thou art their

Helper and their Lord.


— Bahá’u’lláh
