Veni Sancte Spiritus
Veni, Sancte Spiritus,
et emítte caélitus
lucis tuae rádium.
Veni, pater páuperum,
veni, dator múnerum,
veni, lumen córdium.
Consolator óptime,
dulcis hospes animae.
dulce refrigerium.
In labóre réquies,
in aestu tempéries,
in fletu solácium.
O lux beatíssima,
reple cordis íntima
tuórum fidélium.
Sine tuo númine,
nihil est in hómine,
nihil est innoxium.
Lava quod est sórdidum,
riga quod est áridum,
sana quod est sáucium.
Flecte quod est rígidum,
fove quod est frigidum,
rege quod est devium.
Da tuis fidélibus,
in te confidéntibus,
sacrum septenárium.
Da virtútis méritum
da salútis éxitum,
da perénne gáudium.
Amen. Alleluia

Come, Holy Spirit
Come, Holy Spirit, come!
And from Thy celestial home
Shed a ray of light divine!
Come Father of the poor!
Come source of all our store!
Come within our bosoms shine!
Thou, of comforters the best;
Thou, the soul’s most welcome guest;
Sweet refreshment here below;
In our labor, rest most sweet;
Grateful coolness in the heat,
Solace in the midst of woe.
O most blessed Light divine
Shine within these hearts of Thine.
And our inmost being fill!
Where you are not, man has naught,
Nothing good in deed or thought,
Nothing free from taint of ill.
Heal our wounds, our strength renew;
On our dryness pour Thy dew;
Wash the stains of guilt away:
Bend the stubborn heart and will;
Melt the frozen, warm the chill;
Guide the steps that go astray.
On the faithful who adore
And confess you, evermore
In your sev’nfold gift descend;
Give them virtue’s sure reward;
Give them Thy salvation, Lord;
Give them joys that never end.
Amen. Alleluia |
