Divine Unity

Each divine messenger was a beacon,
That was kindled by the Holy Spirit;
Each one was a temple on faith's foundation,
A mirror reflecting the Almighty.

Each one came at a critical point in
History. When religion and the world
Was plunged into the darkness of hate
And fear. When the bonds of love were severed.

They were each known by a different name:
Buddha, Christ, Muhammad, The Bab, Moses,
Abraham, Krishna, Zoroaster, and
Baha'u'llah. All sent by the Creator.

Divine unity: the oneness of God,
Of religion, and of the human race.
