Come Holy Ghost creator come
from thy bright heavenly throne
come take possession of our hearts
and make them all thine own.
Thou who are called the Paraclete
best gift of God above
the living spring the living fire
sweet unction and true love.
Thou who are sevenfold in thy grace
finger of God’s right hand
his promise teaching little ones
to speak and understand.
O guide our minds with thy blest light
with love our hearts inflame
and with thy strength which ne’er decays
confirm our mortal frame.
Far from us drive our deadly foe
true peace unto us bring
and through all perils lead us safe
beneath thy sacred wing.
Through thee may we the Father know
and thee the eternal Son
and thee the Spirit of them both
Thrice blessed three in one.
All glory to the Father be
with his coequal Son
the same to thee great Paraclete
while endless ages run
