Come, Holy ghost, our souls inspire and lighten with celestial fire
Thou the anointing spirit art who dost Thy sevenfold gifts impart
Thy blessed unction from above is comfort life and fire of love
Enable with perpetual light the dulness of our blinded sight
Anoint and cheer our soiled face with the abundance of Thy grace
Keep far out foes, give peace at home Where Thou art Guide no ill can come
Teach us to know the Father, Son and thee of Both to be but One
that through the ages all along this may be our endless song Praise
to Thy eternal merit Father, Son and Holy Spirit
