Spiritual Assembly.

O God! O God! From the unseen kingdom of
Thy oneness behold us assembled in this
spiritual meeting, believing in Thee, confident in
Thy signs, firm in Thy Covenant and Testament,
attracted to Thee, set aglow with the fire of Thy
love and sincere in Thy Cause. We are servants in
Thy vineyard, spreaders of Thy religion, devoted
worshipers of Thy countenance, humble towards
Thy loved ones, submissive before Thy door,
and imploring Thee to confirm us in serving Thy
chosen ones, to support us with Thine unseen
hosts, to strengthen our loins in Thy servitude and
to make us submissive and adoring subjects communing
with Thee.

O our Lord! We are weak, and Thou art the
Mighty, the Powerful. We are lifeless, and Thou
art the great life-giving Spirit. We are needy, and
Thou art the Sustainer, the Powerful.

4 |
O our Lord! Turn our faces unto Thy merciful
countenance, feed us from Thy heavenly table
with Thine abundant grace, assist us with the
hosts of Thy supreme angels and confirm us
through the holy ones of the Kingdom of Abhá.

5 |
Verily, Thou art the Generous, the Merciful.
Thou art the Possessor of great bounty, and, verily,
Thou art the Clement and the Gracious.
- `Abdu'l-Bahá
