Come, Holy Ghost, our souls inspire,

And lighten with celestial fire;
Thou the anointing Spirit art,
Who dost Thy sev'nfold gifts impart.

Anoint and cheer our soild face

With the abundance of Thy grace;
Keep far our foes, give peace at home;
Where Thou art Guide, no ill can come.

Thy blessd unction from above

Is comfort, life, and fire of love;
Enable with perpetual light
The dullness of our blinded sight.

Teach us to know the Father, Son,

And Thee, of both, to be but One;
That through the ages all along
This, this may be our endless song.
