SEE THE PARACLETE
Verse 1
See the Paraclete descending burning with celestial fire;
Grace and truth on Him attending, Man with heavenly love inspire.
Chorus
Let us alleluia singing, offer Him our grateful praise
He all heav'nly graces bringing, Merits everlasting Praise.
Verse 2
Timid souls no longer fearing, now the greatest danger scorn,
Midst their sorrows persevering, show themselves in Christ new born.
Verse 3
Source of love and heart inflaming, With true zeal and virtue pure;
Grant we may in heaven singing, Sing thy praise forevermore.
SPIRIT OF MERCY, TRUTH, AND LOVE
Verse 1
Spirit of mercy, truth, and love,
O shed thine influence from above;
And still from age to age convey
The wonders of this sacred day.
Verse 2
In every clime, by every tongue,
By God's surpassing glory sung;
Let all the listening earth be taught
The acts our great Redeemer wrought.
Verse 3
Unfailing comfort, heavenly guide,
Still o'er the holy Church preside;
Still let mankind thy blessings prove,
Spirit of Mercy, truth, and love.
