Come, gracious Spirit, heavenly Dove
|
Come, gracious Spirit, heavenly Dove, With light and comfort from above; Be thou our guardian, thou our guide, O'er every thought and step preside. The light of truth to us display, And make us know and choose thy way; Plant holy fear in every heart, That we from God may ne'er depart. Lead us to Christ, the living Way, Nor let us from his pastures stray; Lead us to holiness, the road That we must take to dwell with God. Lead us to heaven, that we may share Fulness of joy for ever there; Lead us to God, our final rest, To be with him for ever blest. |
Veni, Columba Spiritus, huc donis cum caelestibus; custos et dux, Paraclite, mentes gradusque dirige. Nos veritas illuminet; noscatur iter, et iuvet; timor sit sanctus omnibus: sic Deo non abibimus. Ad Christum veram duc viam, nec a pascente perperam; duc sanctitatis semita divina nos ad atria. Ad caelum duc: ibi loces nos gaudii participes; duc ad Deum nos ultimo beandos semper otio. |
