REFRAIN
Veni Sancte Spiritus
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
Most kindly warming light
Enter the inmost depths of our hearts
for we are faithful to you
without your presence, we have nothing worthy,
nothing pure.
Veni Sancte Spiritus
VERSE 5
You are our only comforter
peace of the soul
in the heat you shade us
in our labor you refresh us
and in trouble you are our strength.
Veni Sancte Spiritus
VERSE 6
On all who put their trust in you
and receive you in faith
shower all your gifts.
Grant that they may grow in you
and persevere to the end
give them lasting joy
Veni Sancte Spiritus
