  Bestow upon these souls Thy protection

 Faith in Thy Word will sustain me
  And although I feel the pain ..
in my heart that Faith remains
With Thee we're not alone...Thy Love is my Protection

Oh my Lord...I make this sacrifice for Thee ...Who art the Glory
 I know that Your Light will replace this darkness

Refresh and Gladden My Spirit

Baha'i World Center

             
         Words...A Baha'i Prayer

                Music by..Phil Morrison

Oh God...Refresh and Gladden my spirit

Purify my heart...illumine my powers

I lay all my affairs in Thy hand

Thou art my guide and my refuge

I will no longer be sorrowful and grieved

I will be a happy and joyful being

Oh God, I will no longer be filled with

anxiety

Nor will I let trouble harass me

I will not dwell on the unpleasant

things in life

Oh God, Thou art more friend to me than

I am to myself

I dedicate myself to Thee oh Lord

                        Abdu'l Baha

“REMEMBER IBO(Igbo)LANDING”

The historic event that took place on St Simons Island, Georgia at Ibo Landing,

reminds us of the lyrics from an old Negro spiritual…..

Oh freedom, Oh freedom 

Oh freedom over me

AND BEFORE I’D BE A SLAVE

I’D BE BURIED IN MY GRAVE 

And go home to my Lord and be free

Oh freedom

REMEMBER IBO(IGBO) LANDING  (May, 1803)

words & music:  Phil Morrison

Remember Ibo Landing

They walked into Dunbar Creek 

Until the last man standing

It’s freedom that they seek

From Africa their homeland 

Across an ocean wide

In chains you hear them moanin'

In pain as many died

 Remember IBO Landing

 Where Ibos rebel

 Freedom they're demanding

 Won't live their lives in hell!

Saint Simons Island Georgia

Their final resting place

To end the constant torture

This inhumane disgrace

But spirits can't be broken

From the strong and brave

These Africans would rather die

Than live their lives as slaves 

Remember IBO Landing

Along the Georgia shore

With bravery and courage

They marched towards heaven's door

Remember IBO Landing

It's where our heroes died

This history is sacred

Remember them with pride..

Magical their power

Its source comes from the sky

Where angels call to paradise

Behold as freemen fly      

Remember IBO Landing  

           (c)2016 pbm

“Remember Igbo Landing” Live Performance in Concert

Our tribute song commemorating an historic event that took place

 in May, 1803 on Saint Simons Island, Georgia.

It was during the American slave trade scourge when courageous Africans walked into the waters of St Simons Island, sacrificing their lives, rather than submit to being enslaved by their captors!  Legend has it that after entering the water they would then grow wings & fly away.
