“O Thou kind Lord! O Thou Who art generous…” |
O Thou kind Lord! O Thou Who art generous
and merciful! We are servants of
Thy threshold and are gathered beneath the sheltering
shadow of Thy divine unity. The sun of
Thy mercy is shining upon all, and the clouds of
Thy bounty shower upon all. Thy gifts encompass all,
101
Thy loving providence sustains all, Thy protection
overshadows all, and the glances of Thy favor
are cast upon all. O Lord! Grant Thine infinite
bestowals, and let the light of Thy guidance shine.
Illumine the eyes, gladden the hearts with abiding
joy. Confer a new spirit upon all people and bestow
upon them eternal life. Unlock the gates of
true understanding and let the light of faith shine
resplendent. Gather all people beneath the shadow
of Thy bounty and cause them to unite in harmony,
so that they may become as the rays of one
sun, as the waves of one ocean, and as the fruit of
one tree. May they drink from the same fountain.
May they be refreshed by the same breeze. May
they receive illumination from the same source
of light. Thou art the Giver, the Merciful, the
Omnipotent.
