“so as to make me indepenDENT - - of ALL THINGS. O Thou Who art unsurPASSED--- in Thy MERCY!”

lyrics

Bestow Upon Me

O Lord! Unto Thee I repair for refuge,
and toward all Thy signs I set my heart.
O Lord! Whether traveling or at home,
and in my occupation or in my work,
I place my whole trust in Thee.
Grant me then Thy sufficing help
so as to make me independent of all things,
O Thou Who art unsurpassed in Thy mercy!
Bestow upon me my portion, O Lord, as Thou pleasest,
and cause me to be satisfied
with whatsoever Thou hast ordained for me.
Thine is the absolute authority to command.

From Selections from the Writings of the Báb, p.193
