REFRAIN
Holy Spirit Lord of light,
from the clear celestial height.
The pure beaming radiance give.
VERSE 1
Holy Spirit, Lord of Light,
from the clear celestial height.
O Thy pure beaming radiance give.
Come, thou Father of the poor,
come with treasures which endure;
O come, thou light of all that live!
VERSE 2
Thou, of all consolers best.
Thou, the soul's delightful guest,
O Dost refreshing peace bestow.
Thou, in toil art comfort sweet,
Pleasant coolness in the heat;
O Solace in the midst of woe.
VERSE 3
Light immortal, light divine.
Visit thou these hearts of Thine.
O And our inmost being fill.
If Thou take Thy grace away.
Nothing pure in man will stay.
O All his good is turned to ill.
VERSE 4
Heal our wounds our strenght renew,
On our dryness pour Thy dew,
O Wash the stains of guilt away.
Bend the stubborn heart and will,
Melt the frozen, warm the chill,
O Guide the steps that go astray.
VERSE 5
Thou, on us who ever more,
Thee confess and Thee adore,
O With Thy sev'nfold gifts descend.
Give us comfort when we die,
Give us life with Thee on high,
Give us joys that never end. Amen.
