O Holy Ghost, eternal Lord

I O Holy Ghost, eternal Lord, One with the Father and the Word; Who art, and wast, and aye shalt be, While ages pass, eternally.

II Thou spring of Life, Thou source of Light, Fountain of Goodness, God of Might; By Thee the Love of God is known, And Christ in all His fulness shown.

III O Lord of grace, how good Thou art, To soothe with balm the wounded heart; To fire with zeal the fainting soul, To teach, to comfort, and control.

IV To Thee eternal praise be given, Thou Light of earth, Thou Joy of heaven; Who from the Immortal Father came, In living tongues of fiery flame.

V Eternal Spirit, One in Three— Father and Son unite with Thee, In one great, glorious Trinity, Now, and for evermore to be. Amen.
