Bicentenary Poems and Prose

My Candle: To Baha'u'llah

My Candle:
To Baha'u'llah

The light shining in my darkness,
The candle that guides my way,
As I travel paths of starkness,
Walking where matter has sway.

Even in tornado's wind gusts,
When doubt and fear terrorize,
This candle's bright light I can trusts,
God's splendid flame never dies.

The Holy Spirit is my candle's flame,
Each day His glorious name I proclaim.
