Devotional Poetry

Followers of the Son

Followers of the Son

The voice of the heavenly maiden,
Calls from behind the mystic veil.

O Followers of the Son!
The Lord of the vineyard has appeared,
God's will on Earth is being done,
As it is in heaven.

O Followers of the Son!
Christ has returned in the Glory of the Father.
Come out of your sepulchers,
For the resurrection and last judgment has occurred.

O Followers of the Son!
He who is the King of Kings, the Lord of Lords,
And the Prince of Peace has arrived.
God's promise has been fulfilled.

O Followers of the Son!
Baha'u'llah has come bringing with Him
The Holy City, the New Jerusalem,
The Law of God, and all things have been made new.

Poet's Note: ▼

I wrote this in 150 B.E. The inspiration was the Return of Christ in the Father's Glory, and meditation on Baha'u'llah's Table to the Christians. The original title was "To The Christians".
