Sufi Invocation
Toward the One, the Perfection
of Love, Harmony, & Beauty
The Only Being
United with all the illuminated souls
who form the embodiment of the Master, the Message, the Mystery
The Spirit of Guidance.
Blessed always, Blessed always
For the love of God surrounds us
Let our joy be so triumphant
That we rest in God & say Amen
We receive this Bounty
singing Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia!
