A Morning Prayer
I have risen this morning by Thy grace, O my God,
and left my home trusting wholly in Thee, (repeat 2 lines)
and committing myself to Thy care. (repeat)
Send down, then, upon me, out of the heaven of Thy mercy, a blessing from Thy side, (repeat 2 lines)
and enable me to return home in safety
even as Thou didst enable me
to set out under Thy protection
with my thoughts fixed steadfastly upon Thee.
There is none other God but Thee, the One, the Incomparable,
the All-Knowing, the All-Wise. (repeat 2 lines)
Baha'u'llah. (repeat)
