Come, Holy Ghost, our souls inspire, <br>
And lighten with celestial fire; <br>
Thou the anointing Spirit art, <br>
Who dost thy sevenfold gifts impart: <br>
 
<br>
Thy blessed unction from above <br>
Is comfort, life and fire of love; <br>
Enable with perpetual light <br>
The dullness of our blinded sight: <br>
 
<br>
Anoint and cheer our soiled face <br>
With the abundance of thy grace: <br>
Keep far our foes, give peace at home; <br>
Where thou art guide no ill can come. <br>
 
<br>
Teach us to know the Father, Son, <br>
And Thee, of Both, to be but One; <br>
That through the agea all along <br>
This may be our endless song, <br>
 
<br>
Praise to thy eternal merit, <br>
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Amen. <br>
