From the Bahá'í Writings BLESSED IS THE SPOT P.1 Blessed is the spot, and the house, and the place, and the city, and the heart, and the mountain, and the refuge, and the cave, and the valley, and the land, and the sea, and the island, and the meadow where mention of God hath been made, and His praise glorified. Bahá'u'lláh Love Me That I May Love Thee O son of being, Love me, that I may love Thee. If thou lovest me not, My love can in no wise reach Thee. Know this, O servant. Bahá'u'lláh O God, Guide Me O God, guide me, protect me, illumine the lamp of my heart, and make me brilliant star. Thou art the Mighty and Powerful. 'Abdu'l-Bahá Remover Of Difficulties Is there any Remover of difficulties save God? Say: Praised be God! He is God! All are His servants And all abide by His bidding! Báb O God Educate These Children P.2 O God! Educate these children. These children are the plants of thine orchard, the flowers of Thy meadow, the roses of Thy garden. Let Thy rain fall upon them; let the Sun of Reality shine upon them with Thy love. Let Thy breeze refresh them in order that they may be trained, grow and develop, and appear in the utmost beauty. Thou art the Giver. Thou art the Compassionate. -'Abdu'l-Bahá Arabic Remover of Difficulties HAL MEN MO FAR-RAJINN GHAIR-ULLAH QUOL SUB HAN ALLAH, HOVALLAH KUL-LUN EBADAN LA-HOU VA KUL-LUN BE AMR-REHI QAIM-MOUN -Báb To Teach Is To Learn To teach is to learn, to learn is to work, To work is to serve, to serve is to love, To love is to sacrifice, to sacrifice is to die, To die is to live, to live is to strive, To strive is to rise above all earthly Limitations and enter the eternal realm. -'Abdu'l-Bahá II.

Bahá'u'lláh's Birthday P.11 Do you know what day we remember On the twelfth day of November? We give thanks to the land of Ta. For giving us Bahá'u'lláh. Ring the bells and sound the horns! This is the day when He was born. Naw-Ruz Naw-Ruz is the time of year When our hearts are filled with cheer. Children from both far and near, Wish each one a happy New Year. So we all unite and sing, Songs of joy and love we bring, All together spread the word, 'round the world it shall be heard IV. Attributes Courtesy P.12 If the day should feel cloudy and gloomy And there seems to be nothing to do, Help a friend. Tell your mother you love her, And your soul will feel shiny and new. Chorus: Courtesy seems to be that I make sure that you're happy Before I take care of me. Are you glad? are you happy? 'Abdu'l-Bahá asked the friends every day. He wanted all of our hearts to be happy, Courtesy makes us feel that way. Chorus Say "please", "you're welcome" and "thank you" "May I do something for you today?" Bring smiles to the people we talk to That those words become easy to say. Chorus Saying prayers during Feast is so special, We feel that the Master is so near, Now he loves us to serve one another With hearts full of kindness and cheer. Happiness Happiness runs in circular motion, Floating like a little boat on the sea, Everybody is a part of everything anyway, You can be part if you set yourself free. Equality P.13 Men and women it's plain to see Are the soaring wings of humanity. And when those wings begin to fly To an equal degree, Mankind comes to maturity. So let us everyone teach our Children of unity, To love everyone with equality, Chorus: La la la, la la la, la la la la la la, La la la, la la la, la la la la la la, Black or white, red or tan, Lord a person is recognized in every land. It's time we recognized the perversity Of hating people by heredity. So let us everyone teach our Children of Unity. To love everyone with equality Chorus Let's open our eyes, and open our ears, Or we're not gonna make it Through another year. People of all Faiths and nationalities, From land to land, and sea to sea... So let us everyone teach our Children of Unity. To love everyone with equality. La la la, la la la, la la la la la la, La la la, la la la, la la la la la la, La la la la la la, La la la la la la. Obedience P.14 The clouds of tests are gathering near, We can hear the thunder roaring, The storm of chaos breaks on our land. Let us turn our souls to God, Be obedient and steadfast, United, not divided we stand. Chorus: Be strong, be vigilant. You'll be rewarded. Be strong, be vigilant. You'll be rewarded Let's remember who we are, The eyes of so many are upon us. Let us grow, serve, love and obey, For by living Bahá'í lives We bring hope instead of happiness To a world full of crumbling and decay. Chorus As the world around us falls, Blind friends are stopped by walls, Let us lead them to the light of truth. To be strong, obey the laws. Let us build a better world. It really must be done by the youth. Chorus Truthfulness P.15 Telling the truth can be easy, When grandma asks, "Would you like yogurt to eat?" It's easy to say, "Yes, yes, yes!" And know it's the truth. Chorus: Truthfulness makes us strong. Our hearts and our souls grow like giants. Telling the truth can seem kind of scary, Bahá'u'lláh tells us it' necessary To always tell the truth. Telling the truth can be hard. When mother says, "Did you lose your brand new shoe?" It's hard to say "Yes, yes, yes". When it's the truth. Chorus Telling the truth can be scary, It's hard to tell people You've done something wrong. But parents are happy When children tell the truth. Patience P.16 A rock is patient. It sits through lightning, snow and grime, Rocks don't complain, They take the time to change. A rock is patient. A plant is patient. The seed grows when the time's right just right, It know's the day's for the sun, The night's for rest. A plant is patient. A cow is patient She stands all day to chew and eat, She gives us milk in cold and heat and rain. A cow is patient. Sometimes I'm patient, When people ask I stop and wait, Sometimes it's hard but it feels great to know, I can be patient. The Master was patient, He did what God asked Him to, I hope I grow up like 'Abdu'l-Bahá For He was patient. V. Love, Peace, Unity Love Your Neighbors and Friends P.17 Love your neighbors and friends, That's the word that God sends, For a world of unity, Love your neighbors and friends. I'm Bahá'u'lláh's child He has taught me to love All the children around the world. I'm Bahá'u'lláh's child. There's a faith filled with love, Joy and happiness too. All Bahá'ís around the world, Give this friendship to you. Ya Baha'u'-l-Abha! Ya Baha'u'-l-Abha! Sing you children around the world. Ya Baha'u'-l-Abha! Get Together P.18 Chorus: Come on people now, Smile on your brother Everybody get together Try to love one another right now. Love is but a song we sing Fear is the way we die You can make the mountains ring Or make the angels cry Though the bird is on the wing You may not know why. Chorus: Some people may go Hate will surely pass When the one who left us here Returns for us at last We are but in moments of life Fading on the grass. Chorus: If you hear the song I sing You will understand You hold the key to love and fear All in your trembling hand Just one key unlocks them both It's there at your command. Chorus: Fellowship P.19 Long time ago in Mazinderan So the Dawnbreakers say, Manifestation of God was born, Bringing the promised day. He sing a song to all mankind, All the mountains they ring, See all the people laughing with joy, This is the song that they sing: Chorus: Fellowship, Fellowship, Love, Love, Unity, All the people are one Man is a member of just one family The age of peace has begun. Mulla Husayn went down to Shiraz, To find the Point of Bayan Say, Mulla Husayn go tell all the people The Prophet He speak again, and He say: Chorus: The Shah thought he would put out the light, But our Lord from Iran say "Shah what a foolish man you be -- "My Teaching has only begun!" Chorus: The Master say we should always be happy Laughing and singing so I want you should all join in the refrain By now you should know how it goes. And we sing: Chorus: (TWICE) Flowers of God's Garden P.20 We are Flowers of God's garden, Bright as the morning sun, fresh as the dawn Lovely in differences, varied in loveliness, We are the flowers of humanity. I am a black rose, dark, exotic, Poignant in beauty, fragrant as the night. God has entrusted me with Joy and mystery, We are the Flowers of humanity. I am a red rose, sweet and lovely, Gay as a bird on a bright, summer day, Singing a song of God, where'ere I wander We are Flowers of humanity. I am a white rose, gleaming, shining, Sparkling like snow on the mountainside. Restless as whitecaps flung By the oceans breeze, We are the Flowers of humanity. Brown is my color, rich and glowing, Full of the warmth of God's sweet love, Heir to all nations, grandeur my destiny, We are the Flowers of humanity. We are the Flowers of God's garden, Bright as the morning sun, fresh as the dawn Lovely in differences, varied in loveliness, We are the Flowers of humanity. Good Neighbors P.21 Chorus: Good neighbors come in all colors Red, black, yellow and tan, Our outsides may be different But we belong to the family of man. When my doorbell starts to ring, I can't see the person's skin Even if he had bright blue skin I'd welcome him right in. Chorus When my neighbor starts to cry It hurts him and that hurts I Even if he had orange eyes It hurts him when he cries. Chorus When my neighbor wants to share, Joy and happiness everywhere Even if had purple hair I wouldn't even care. Chorus A Plea For One World P.21 A plea for one world Is heard in many different lands, This is a plea for a world That is hungry for peace Let all men come together, Let all men live together, Happy in all kinds of weather Singing a song of peace.

Last Night I Had The Strangest Dream P.23 Last night I had the strangest dream I ever had before, I dreamed the world had all agreed To put an end to war. I dreamed there was a mighty room And the room was filled with men And the paper they were signing said They'd never fight again. And the paper was all signed And a million copies made They all joined hands and circled round And grateful prayers were said. And the people on the streets below Were dancing round and round With swords and guns and uniforms All scattered on the ground. Last night I had the strangest dream I ever had before, I dreamed the world had all agreed To put an end to war. Let There Be Peace On Earth P.24 Let there be peace on earth And let it begin with me; Let there be peace on earth The peace was meant to be. With God as our Father, Brothers all are we. Let me walk with my brother In perfect harmony. Let peace begin with me, Let this be the moment now With every step I take, Let this be the moment now With every step I take, Let this be my solemn vow: To take each moment And live each moment In peace eternally. Let there be peace on earth And let it begin with me. World Citizens P.24 Chorus: "Glory not in this that you love your country", Glory in this that you love mankind. We're the fruits of only one tree And the leaves of just one branch. World Citizens! World Citizens! Unity, the world cries for unity. Its rays are dawning like the sun. Soon the world will be one. Chorus In unity that's how the world must be, All its people live as one. Like fragrant flowers in the sun. Chorus Oh What A Beautiful World P.25 Oh what a beautiful world this will be When all men learn to see Oh what a beautiful world this will be When all men learn to know Chorus: Bahá'u'lláh will show us the way Bahá'u'lláh has brought a new day Bahá'u'lláh, Bahá'u'lláh Bahá'u'lláh, Bahá'u'lláh Oh what a beautiful world this will be When all men to learn to hear Oh what a beautiful world this will be When all men learn to love Chorus Oh what a beautiful world this will be When all men learn to see Oh what a beautiful world this will be When all men learn to know Chorus: It's A Small World P.25 It's a world of laughter, a world of tears, It's a world of hope and a world of fears. There's so much time that we share, That it's time we're aware It's a small world after all. It's a small world after all. (4) There is just one world and one golden sun, And a smile means friendship to everyone, Though the mountains are wide It's a small world after all. It's a small world after all. (4) Building Bridges P.26 Chorus: We are building bridges out of the walls, Building bridges out of the walls, (2) They keep us apart. When the wall says stay away We are from a different land We're going to tell them The earth's one country, We're world citizens. And turn that wall into a bridge, Take my brother by the hand and Walk across that bridge To the world God promised man. Chorus When the wall says stay away, We are from a different race We're going to tell them This is just one race That's the human race And turn that wall into a bridge, Take my brother by the hand and Walk across that bridge To the world God promised man. Chorus When the wall says stay away, Our religion is not the same We're going to tell them That we just worship God by different names And turn that wall into a bridge, Take my brother by the hand and Walk across that bridge To the world God promised man. Chorus What Mankind Has To Learn P.27 There's only one God Throughout the universe, But man multiplied Him and so, There's a "your God" and "my God". What mankind has to learn is that There's only one God to know. There's only one race Of men upon earth But man did divide it and so, There's a black race and white race, What mankind has to learn is that There's only one race to know. Earth was one country when God gave it to man But man did divide it, and so, There's a China, a Turkey; What mankind has to learn is that There's only one country to know. Religions are one as the Prophets all have sung But mankind denied them, and so There's just one religion What mankind has to learn is Religions are one thing to know. There's only one-ness throughout The world of God But man won't believe it, and so He divides and multiplies it, oh Won't he ever learn that There's only ONE-NESS to know. Religions are one thing to know. The Rose P.28 Some say love, it is a river, That drowns the tender reed, Some say love, it is a razor That leaves your heart to bleed. Some say love, it is a hunger, An endless, aching need, I say love it is a flower, And you its only seed. It's the heart afraid of breaking That never learns to dance, It's the dream afraid of waking, That never takes the chance. It's the one who won't be taken Who cannot seem to give, And the soul afraid of dying, That never learns to live. When the night has been too lonely And the road has been too long, And you think that love is only For the lucky and the strong. Just remember in the winter, Far beneath the bitter snow, Lies the seed that with sun's love In the spring becomes the rose. O Bahá'u'lláh P.28 O Bahá'u'lláh, O Bahá'u'lláh, O Bahá'u'lláh Bring us together in unity, Bring together as one family We are all waves of one sea We are leaves of one tree, We are all flowers of one garden, Bring us together in unity, Bring us together as one family. We are all stars in the sky, We are one in God's eye, Bahá'u'lláh cam for mankind, To bring us together in unity, Bring us together as one family. We are all angels of fire and snow, We see the light and away we go Spreading the news of the one foretold, Bring us together in unity, Bring us together as one family. Darkness has fallen on this land, Evil tries to force our hand, United in God together we stand, Bring us together in unity, Bring us together as one family. God is One P.29 God is one, man is one And all the religions are one. Land and sea, hill and valley, Under the beautiful sun. God is one, man is one, And all the religions agree. When everyone learns The three one-nesses We'll have world unity. Magic Penny P.30 Happiness is something if you give it away Give it away, give it away, Happiness is something if you give it away Give it away, give it away, It comes right back to you. Chorus: It's just like a magic penny Hold it tight and you won't have any. Lend it, spend it, give it away, It comes right back to you. A smile is something if you give it away, Give it away, give it away, A smile is something if you give it away, It comes right back to you. Chorus Love is something if you give it away, Give it away, give it away, Love is something if you give it away, It comes right back to you. Queen of Carmel P.30 Standing on the mountain Looking 'cross the bay The Queen of Carmel reigns She reigns majestically. Chorus Cry out O Zion Cry out to your Lord Cry out O Zion Circle 'round in adoration Circle 'round your Lord! Robed in white and crowned in gold She stands for unity Shining on the Throne of God She lights the seekers way. Chorus The Hidden One has come to thee Whose glory we acclaim God will sail His Ark on Thee As mentioned in the Book of Names. Chorus Peace P.31 One day soon peace will fill the world Just like a shining sun And one day soon men will live in harmony, In the garden. Chorus: Peace is the promise Of the Messengers of God Peace is the only way Mankind can live as one Peace brings true happiness To you and then to me, And peace will come. One day soon, violence will vanish, Just like a threatening storm that fills the air. And one day soon broken Hearts will be mended Just as quick as the doctor Heals a hurting wound. Chorus (repeat) Loving Hands P.32 Mothers hands so soft and smooth Here to touch and here to sooth Rock me, swing me, through the storm In mothers's hands I'm safe and warm. Fathers hands so big and strong And his fingers oh so long Lead me, guide me, catch me quick A loving hand is yours I'll pick. Loving hands mean loving hearts. Strength and wisdom they impart. Now I trust these hands to thee Kind and good to me. When I'm grown I'll have Loving hands. Mothers hands when you are young They pat you dry when bath is done They do so many wondrous things So much joy her hands can bring. In fathers hands I fly so high I feel like I could touch the sky And when he's firm his hands they speak I realize I'm small and weak. Loving hands mean loving hearts. This I know right from the start. When I'm grown they'll set me free Reaching for the world Reaching for the world Loving hands. (repeat) VI. General Blessed Beauty P.33 Chorus: Walking with me, talking with me Laughing with me, singing with me Hoping for me, caring for me. As I walked down my troubled street Feeling so bad and looking at my feet I turned my face unto the sky And I saw a white cloud passing by And I know the Blessed Beauty Was there and He was. Chorus As I walk down my crooked street I tell everyone I get to meet, "Hey brother, don't despair, The Blessed Beauty is there, and He is..." Chorus Now black man, white man, Yellow man, read man When your hopes are shattered and torn, Push some more, You can open any door, Because He is... Chorus You people of Baha, please take heed Don't be afraid to mount your steed The Blessed Beauty knows you And He knows you needs Because He is... Chorus Blowing in the Wind P.34 How many roads must a man walk down Before he is called a man? How many seas must a white dove sail Before he sleeps in the sand? How many times must a cannon ball fly Before they're forever banned? Chorus: The answer my friend is blowing in the wind The answer is blowing in the wind. How many years can a mountain exist before it is washed to the sea? How many years can some people exist before they're allowed to be free? How many times can a man turn his head And pretend that he just doesn't see? Chorus How many times must a man look up before How can see the sky? How many ears must one man have before He can hear people cry? How many deaths will it take till he knows That too many people have died?

Chorus: A Robin's Song P.40 Harken my brothers, and I will sing thee, A lovely tune, a lovely melody; Once I was walking, in the deep forest, And a lovely robin sang this song for me: Be not thou lonely, in midst of trouble Nor be despairing, in midst of woe, Rather be thankful, for all thy trials, For without trails, we can never grow. Be thou immovable as a mountain A mighty peak firm against the blast, For winds shall blow, and bitter Storms surround thee, And all is lost if thou be not steadfast. Be thou a refuge for all who wonder, Be thou a haven for every homeless soul Be thou a lighthouse upon the ocean, Guiding the vessels through the wind and snow. Walk thou uprightly, amongst mankind, Be not dependent on any living soul, For God will help thee, in time of danger, And in times of sickness He will make thee whole. Show forth all meekness, unto all people, Put not thyself ahead of anyone. Be an example unto the righteous, And in the darkness, be a shining sun. Show forth uprightness, in all thy actions, Be thou unselfish in all thy deeds, For he shall prosper, who is trustworthy, And if be honest, he shall have no need. Thus sand the robin, in that deep forest, His song of cheer, ringing through the glen. For without trials, we can never grow." God is Sufficient Unto Me P.41 God is sufficient unto me. He verily is the all sufficing. In Him let the trusting trust, In Him let the trusting trust, In Him let the trusting trust.
