Words by Abdu'l Baha
FROM THE QUOTE:
"In winter come the storms, and the great winds blow, but then will follow spring in all its beauty, adorning hill and plain with perfumed plants and red anemones, fair to see. Then will the birds trill out upon the branches their songs of joy, and sermonize in lilting tones from the pulpits of the trees. Ere long shall ye bear witness that the lights are streaming forth, the banners of the realm above are waving, the sweet scents of the All-Merciful are wafted abroad, the hosts of the Kingdom are marching down, the angels of heaven are rushing forward, and the Holy Spirit is breathing upon all those regions . . . This is decreed by the Lord, the Revealer of Verses." ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, Selections from the Writings of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, pp. 163-134.

LYRICS
In winter come the storms, and the great winds blow,
but then will follow spring in all its beauty
Then will the birds trill out upon the branches their songs of joy,
and sermonize in lilting tones from the pulpits of the trees
Ere long shall ye
bear witness
that the lights are streaming forth
BRIDGE
the banners of the realm above are waving,
the hosts of the Kingdom are marching down,
the angels of heaven are rushing forward,
the Holy Spirit is breathing upon all
Ere long shall ye
bear witness
that the lights are streaming forth
