“O God, my God! Praise be unto Thee for…” |
O God, my God! Praise be unto Thee for
kindling the fire of divine love in the Holy
Tree on the summit of the loftiest mount: that
201
Tree which is “neither of the East nor of the West,”

that fire which blazed out till the flame of it soared
upward to the Concourse on high, and from it
those realities caught the light of guidance, and
cried out: “Verily have we perceived a fire on the
slope of Mount Sinai.”

O God, my God! Increase Thou this fire, as day
followeth day, till the blast of it setteth in motion
all the earth. O Thou, my Lord! Kindle the light
of Thy love in every heart, breathe into men’s
souls the spirit of Thy knowledge, gladden their
breasts with the verses of Thy oneness. Call Thou
to life those who dwell in their tombs, warn Thou
the prideful, make happiness worldwide, send
down Thy crystal waters, and in the assemblage
of manifest splendors, pass round that cup which
is “tempered at the camphor fountain.”
