Sorrow Not by Luke Slott

Sorrow Not by Luke Slott

From the album Create in Me a Pure Heart, available here:
http://lukeslott.bandcamp.com/album/c…

Music: Luke Slott
Words: From the Writings of Baha’u’llah

Performed as part of a musical presentation about the Baha’i Faith by Luke Slott at the Newcastle Baha’i Centre on 9th October 2011. Recorded on a mobile phone and made available on YouTube with the kind permission of the artist.

The Words are taken from this passage:
“Sorrow not if, in these days and on this earthly plane, things contrary to your wishes have been ordained and manifested by God, for days of blissful joy, of heavenly delight, are assuredly in store for you. Worlds, holy and spiritually glorious, will be unveiled to your eyes. You are destined by Him, in this world and hereafter, to partake of their benefits, to share in their joys, and to obtain a portion of their sustaining grace. To each and every one of them you will, no doubt, attain.”
(Gleanings from the Writings of Baha’u’llah, p.328)
