Come Holy Spirit God and Lord with all your graces now outpoured… (LSB 497)
Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful and kindle in them the fire of your love. Send forth your Spirit, and they shall be created. And You shall renew the face of the earth.
O, God, who by the light of the Holy Spirit, did instruct the hearts of the faithful, grant that by the same Holy Spirit we may be truly wise and ever enjoy His consolations. Through Christ Our Lord. Amen.
“Komm, Heiliger Geist, erfüll die Herzen deiner Gläubigen,
entflamme in ihnen das Feurer deiner Liebe. Der du in all den verschiedenen Sprachen Vöker in einen geeinten Glauben versammelt hast! Halleluja! Halleluja!”
Komm, Heiliger Geist, Herre Gott,
Erfüll mit deiner Gnaden Gut Deiner Gläub’gen Herz, Mut und Sinn. Dein brünstig Lieb entzünd in ihn’! O Herr, durch deines Lichtes Glast Zu dem Glauben versammelt hast Das Volk aus aller Welt Zungen; Das sei dir Herr, zu Lob gesungen! Halleluja! Halleluja!
Veni, Sancte Spiritus,
reple tuorum corda fidelium, et tui amoris in eis ignem accende. Qui per diversitatem linguarum cunctarum Gentes in unitate fidei congregasti! Halleluja! Halleluja!
