Litany of the Holy Ghost
Lord, have mercy on us.
Christ, have mercy on us.
Lord, have mercy on us.
Christ, hear us.
Christ, graciously hear us.
God, the Father of heaven, have mercy on us.
God, the Son, Redeemer of the world, have mercy on us.
God, the Holy Ghost, have mercy on us.
Holy Trinity, one God, have mercy on us.
Come, Holy Spirit, send down from heaven the rays of Thy divine light.
Come, Thou who art the Father of the poor, the author of all good gifts, and the light of our hearts.
Come Thou, the best of comforters, the sweet guest, and sweetest refreshment of our souls.
The rest of our labors, the ruler of our passions, the comforter of our tears.
O blessed Light, come, penetrate the very center of the hearts of the faithful.
Without Thy grace what can man do? How can he guiltless he?
Wash, therefore, Lord, our polluted souls, water our barren clay, and heal our wounds.
Soften our stubborn wills, inflame our tepid hearts, and guide our wandering steps.
Grant to Thy faithful, who trust in Thee, the treasure of Thy sevenfold gift.
