Veni Creator Spiritus
Traditional English Formula
Come, Holy Ghost, Creator blest,
Vouchsafe within our souls to rest;
Come with Thy grace and heavenly aid
To fill the hearts which Thou hast made.
O Comforter, to Thee we cry,
Thou heavenly gift of God Most High,
Thou fount of life, and fire of love,
And sweet anointing from above. Amen.
Textus Latinus (Traditional Latin Formula)
Veni, Creator Spiritus,
mentes tuorum visita,
imple superna gratia
quae tu creasti pectora.
Qui diceris Paraclitus,
altissimi donum Dei,
fons vivus, ignis, caritas,
et spiritalis unctio. Amen.
