The Holy Ghost

Hymn and Sequence of the Holy Ghost

Hymn

COME, Holy Ghost, Creator, come,
From Thy bright, heavenly 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.
Oh  ! guide our minds with
Thy blest light.
With love our hearts inflame;
And with Thy strength,
which ne'er decays,
Confirm our mortal frame.
