OSTINATO
Veni Sancte Spiritus.
VERSE 1
Come, Holy Spirit, from heaven shine forth
with your glorious light.
Veni Sancte Spiritus.
VERSE 2
Come, Father of the poor,
come, generous Spirit.
Come, light of our hearts.
Veni Sancte Spiritus.
VERSE 3
Come, from the four winds O Spirit,
come breath of God,
disperse the shadows over us,
renew and strengthen your people.
Veni Sancte Spiritus.
VERSE 4
Father of the poor,
unto us poverty,
shower upon us the seven gifts of your grace,
be the light of our lives.
O come.
Veni Sancte Spiritus.
VERSE 5
You are our only Comforter,
peace of the soul.
In the heat you shade us,
in our labour you refresh us,
and in trouble you are our strength.
Veni Sancte Spiritus.
