Hymn Come, Holy Ghost, Creator, come From thy bright heav'nly throne; Come, take possession of our souls, And make them all thine own. Thou who art called the Paraclete, Best gift of God above, The living spring, the living fire, Sweet unction and true love. Thou who art 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, Through thee th'eternal Son, And thee the Spirit of them both, Thrice-blessed three in One. To God the Father, God the Son And God the Spirit, praise be done; And Christ the Lord upon us pour The Spirit's gift forever more. Amen.
Ant. The Holy Spirit. Ps. 70 Be pleased, O God, to deliver me; O LORD, make haste to help me. Let those who seek my life be ashamed and altogether dismayed; let those who take pleasure in my misfortune draw back and be disgraced. Bet those who say to me "Aha!" and gloat over me turn back, because they are ashamed. BLet all who seek you rejoice and be glad in you; let those who love your salvation say for ever, "Great is the LORD!" But as for me, I am poor and needy; come to me speedily, O God. You are my helper and my deliverer; O LORD, do not tarry. Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit; As it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever. Amen. Ant. Holy Spirit, teach us excellence and discipline and knowledge. Alleluia.
