✍ The Lyrics ✍
[Colby]
Hey! Throw your hands up! Woo! Who we praising?
I’m not a fighter, call me the true lover,
Devoted friend reaching the presence of the Beloved,
Awe struck at the sparkling beauty,
Feel the fire, feel the blaze, feel it flowing right through me,
Burning veils, burning wrappings, walking through the trappings,
As the flame burns from my heart to my skin, I feel it deep within,
Let that fire of love burn ‘til nothing remains except the true friend,
Revelations, everlasting, down from the Kingdom, spittin it quick, I call it fasting,
Cuz every time I’m turning my eye unto the Divine I’m feeling so fine,
Material needs not bothering me, intoxicated by the choice wine,
The spirit of life, drink up your cup, yeah, throw your hands up, all love to the Most High,
Your wondrous utterance, we listen, we arise, in Your Name we glorify, hey!
[Chorus – Colby & Xandra Black]
Can I get a hallelujah, feel the Holy Spirit running through yuh, who we praising?
The Most Generous, The All Merciful,
Divine Providence, The All Powerful,
Divine Countenance, The All Glorious,
The All Bounteous, we victorious,
Cuz we turn our face unto the Cause,
And we lifting up our hands giving all the praise to God,
Feel the love flowing infinite,
And we know we powerless without the power of the Omnipotent!
[Brenn]
When you open up the window and the light come right in,
You can find me riding to where the Most High be,
Asking God to enlighten me with this light in me,
Burning veils so I can see His dynasty, please define me,
Cuz I’ve been struggling with my Faith like who should I praise if I wanna be saved,
Cuz if the rapture was today I’d be afraid of where I would go,
Please save me, I give my trust to You,
And these sun rays shine deeply on me,
I’ll reflect it right back out onto the community,
I’ll disconnect negative energy with the powers You send me through my written verses,
Got me feeling perfect with purpose, I stay searching, dispersing his gift
Rehearsing, reversing curses so I can I lift this message to heaven,
I’m breathless by the beauty, now listen to this…
[Chorus – Colby & Xandra Black]
God is glorious, Allah’u’Abha! So open up and feel the Glory Yá Bahá’u’l-Abhá, praising,
The Most Generous, The All Merciful,
Divine Providence, The All Powerful,
Divine Countenance, The All Glorious,
The All Bounteous, we victorious,
Cuz we turn our face unto the Cause,
And we lifting up our hands giving all the praise to God,
Feel the love flowing infinite,
And we know we powerless without the power of the Omnipotent!
[Reflectionz]
I feel empowered, used to be a coward,
Let me see if I can shake it, let me see if I can break it by these deeds not words,
Let your voice be heard, let these demons deter,
Now everybody up,
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, let’s go door to door,
Let’s see the universe begin to be restored,
This is heated, won’t be beat, no matter what i won’t be seated,
So let’s feel the unity, be the unity, building unity, see the unity,
Let the definition mean something more than you and me,
Examine close use your scrutiny and truthfully, hey,
Let it take you higher places, let it twist you up and rewind,
And when you hit the ground you’ll see why,
This is so important every morning every night,
As I let the divine feed my soul, open up and take a bite, hey!
[Chorus – Colby & Xandra Black]
If you feel us throw hands up! Everybody out ya seat, lemme see you stand up! Praising!
The Most Generous, The All Merciful,
Divine Providence, The All Powerful,
Divine Countenance, The All Glorious,
The All Bounteous, we victorious,
Cuz we turn our face unto the Cause,
And we lifting up our hands giving all the praise to God,
Feel the love flowing infinite,
And we know we powerless without the power of the Omnipotent!
🙏 Spiritual Inspiration 🙏
In the Baha’i Writings, there are many references to the various “titles” or “names” of God, such as “The All Loving”, “The Most Generous”, and “The All Wise”. In the quotation below, our group was captivated by a particular title: “The Omnipotent”. It means having power and control over all things. Reflecting on this name of God, we decided to write a song about our love and admiration for the Creator.
“Know thou that he is truly learned who hath acknowledged My Revelation, and drunk from the Ocean of My knowledge, and soared in the atmosphere of My love, and cast away all else besides Me, and taken firm hold on that which hath been sent down from the Kingdom of My wondrous utterance. He, verily, is even as an eye unto mankind, and as the spirit of life unto the body of all creation. Glorified be the All-Merciful Who hath enlightened him, and caused him to arise and serve His great and mighty Cause. Verily, such a man is blessed by the Concourse on high, and by them who dwell within the Tabernacle of Grandeur, who have quaffed My sealed Wine in My Name, the Omnipotent, the All-Powerful.” – Bahá’u’lláh (Ruhi Institute Book 5, Unit 1, Section 21)
“For when the true lover and devoted friend reacheth to the presence of the Beloved, the sparkling beauty of the Loved One and the fire of the lover’s heart will kindle a blaze and burn away all veils and wrappings. Yea, all he hath, from heart to skin, will be set aflame, so that nothing will remain save the Friend.” – Bahá’u’lláh (Ruhi Institute Book 5, Unit 1, Section 21)
