DESCRIPTION:
Come Holy Ghost (Veni Creator Spiritus), from Through The Water by Rob Patterson

Words: 9th century Latin translated by John Cosin; Music: Rob Patterson

Come, Holy Ghost, our souls inspire,
And lighten with celestial fire.
Thou the anointing Spirit art,
Who dost thy seven gifts impart.

Thy blessed unction from above
is comfort, life, and fire of love.
Enable with perpetual light
The dullness of our blinded sight.

Praise, praise, praise to thy eternal merit,
Praise, praise, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Praise, praise, praise.

Anoint and cheer our soiled face
With the abundance of thy grace.
Keep far our foes, give peace at home:
Where thou art guide, no ill can come.

Praise, praise, praise to thy eternal merit,
Praise, praise, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Praise, praise, praise.

Teach us to know the Father, Son,
And thee, of both, to be but One,
That through the ages all along,
This may be our unending song:

Praise, praise, praise to thy eternal merit,
Praise, praise, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Praise, praise, praise to thy eternal merit,
Praise, praise, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Praise, praise, praise
Praise, praise, praise
Praise, praise, praise
