1. Come, Holy Ghost, our souls inspire, and lighten with celestial fire; thou the anointing Spirit art, who dost thy sevenfold gifts impart. 2. Thy blessed unction from above is comfort, life, and fire of love; enable with perpetual light the dullness of our blinded sight. 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. 4. 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: Praise to thy eternal merit, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Amen.
