I beseech Thee, by Thy Most Great Name, to open the eyes of
Thy servants, that they may behold Thee shining above the horizon of Thy
majesty and glory, and that they may not be hindered by the croaking of the
raven from hearkening to the voice of the Dove of Thy sublime oneness, nor be
prevented by the corrupt waters from partaking of the pure wine of Thy bounty
and the everlasting streams of Thy gifts.
Gather them, then, together around this Divine Law, the
covenant of which Thou hast established with all Thy Prophets and Thy
Messengers, and Whose ordinances Thou hast written down in Thy Tablets and Thy
Scriptures. Raise them up, moreover, to such heights as will enable them to
perceive Thy Call.
- Baha’u’llah (‘Prayers and meditations by Baha’u’llah’)
