Original text and translations

Spirit of God, unseen as the wind, gentle as is the dove; touch us with truth and teach us to sing joy to you Lord above.

Your voice the sound, heard in the wind, o’er fields and woods you sing; now I can hear the joy, my lord, the peace your song will bring.

Spirit of God . . .

Love in our hearts, praise in our prayers, we follow on your way; Lord of the sky, Lord of the earth, answer us when we pray.

Spirit of God . . .
