Stanza 1
Come, Holy Ghost, our souls inspire
And lighten with celestial fire
Thou the anointing Spirit art
Who dost thy sevenfold gifts impart
Stanza 2
Thy blessed unction from above
Is comfort, life, and fire of love
Enable with perpetual light
The dullness of our blinded sight
Stanza 3
Anoint and cheer our soiled face
With the abundance of thy grace
Keep far our foes, give peace at home
Where thou art guide, no ill can come
Stanza 4
Teach us to know the Father, Son
And thee, of both, to be but One
That through the ages all along
This may be our endless song
Stanza 5
Praise to thy eternal merit
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit
