I beseech Thee, O my Lord, by Thy most effulgent Name, to
acquaint my people with the things Thou didst destine for them. Do Thou, then,
preserve them within the stronghold of Thy guardianship and the tabernacle of
Thine unerring protection, lest through them may appear what will divide Thy
servants. Assemble them, O my Lord, on the shores of this Ocean, every drop of
which proclaimeth Thee to be God, besides Whom there is none other God, the
All-Glorious, the All-Wise.
(Baha’u’llah, ‘Prayers and Meditations of
Baha’u’llah’)
