Creator Spirit, By Whose Aid
The World’s Foundations First Were Laid,
Come, Visit Every Pious Mind;
Come, Pour Thy Joys On Human Kind;
From Sin, And Sorrow Set Us Free;
And Make Thy Temples Worthy Thee.
O Source Of Uncreated Light,
The Father’s Promised Paraclete!
Thrice Holy Fount, Thrice Holy Fire,
Our Hearts With Heavenly Love Inspire;
Come, And Thy Sacred Unction Bring
To Sanctify Us, While We Sing!
Plenteous Of Grace, Descend From High,
Thou Strength Of His Almighty Hand,
Whose Power Does Heaven And Earth Command:
Proceeding Spirit, Our Defense,
Who Dost The Gift Of Tongues Dispense,
And Crown’s Thy Gift With Eloquence!
Refine And Purge Our Earthly Parts;
But, Oh, Inflame And Fire Our Hearts!
Our Frailties Help, Our Vice Control;
Submit The Senses To The Soul;
And When Rebellious They Are Grown,
Then, Lay Thy Hand, And Hold Them Down.
Create All New; Our Wills Control,
Subdue The Rebel In Our Soul;
Make Us Eternal Truths Receive,
And Practice All That We Believe;
Give Us Thyself, That We May See
The Father And The Son By Thee.
Immortal Honor, Endless Fame,
Attend The’ Almighty Father’s Name:
The Savior Son Be Glorified,
Who For Lost Man’s Redemption Died:
And Equal Adoration Be,
Eternal Paraclete, To Thee.
