"O God, my God! I implore Thee with a throbbing..."
O God, my God! I implore Thee with a throbbing heart and streaming tears
to aid whosoever expendeth his energy for the erection of this House, and
the construction of this Building wherein Thy name is mentioned every morn
and every eve.
O God! Send down Thy divine increase on whosoever endeavoreth to serve
this edifice and exerteth himself to raise it amongst the kindreds and
religions of the world. Confirm him in every good deed in promoting the
welfare of mankind. Open Thou the doors of wealth and abundance unto him
and make him an heir to the treasures of the Kingdom, which perish not.
Make him a sign of Thy bestowals among the peoples and reinforce him by
the sea of Thy generosity and bounty, surging with waves of Thy grace and
favor. Verily, Thou art the Generous, the Merciful and the Bountiful.
--'Abdu'l-Baha
