Hymns for the Mass

Come Holy Ghost

Verse 1
Come, Holy Ghost, Creator blest, And in our hearts take up Thy rest;
Come with thy grace and heavenly aid
To fill our hearts which thou hast made,
To fill our hearts which Thou has made.
Verse 2
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,
And sweet anointing from above.
Verse 3
O Holy Ghost, through thee alone, Know we the Father and the Son;
Be this our firm unchanging creed, That thou dost from them both proceed,
That thou dost from them both proceed.
Verse 4
Praise we the Lord, Father and Son,
And Holy Spirit with them one;
And may the Son on us bestow all gifts that from the Spirit flow,
All gifts that from the Spirit flow.

Communion Hymn #1

Veni Sancte Spiritus

Holy Spirit, Lord of Light,
From the clear celestial height
Thy pure beaming radiance give.
Come, thou Father of the poor,
Come with treasures which endure
Come, thou light of all that live!
Thou, of all consolers best,
Thou, the soul’s delightful guest,
Dost refreshing peace bestow
Thou in toil art comfort sweet
Pleasant coolness in the heat
Solace in the midst of woe.
Light immortal, light divine,
Visit thou these hearts of thine,
And our inmost being fill:
If thou take thy grace away,
Nothing pure in man will stay
All his good is turned to ill.
Heal our wounds, our strength renew
On our dryness pour thy dew
Wash the stains of guilt away:
Bend the stubborn heart and will
Melt the frozen, warm the chill
Guide the steps that go astray.
Thou, on us who evermore
Thee confess and thee adore,
With thy sevenfold gifts descend:
Give us comfort when we die
Give us life with thee on high
Give us joys that never end.

Recessional Hymn

Spirit Song

Verse 1
Oh, let the Son of God enfold you with his Spirit and his love;
Let him fill your heart and satisfy your soul
Oh, let him have the things that hold you, and his Spirit, like a dove, Will descend upon your life and make you whole
Chorus
O Jesus, O Jesus, come and fill your lambs
O Jesus, O Jesus, come and fill your lambs
Verse 2
Oh, come and sing the song with gladness as your hearts are filled with joy
Lift your hands in sweet surrender to his name
Oh, give him all your tears and sadness, give him all your years of pain, And you'll enter into life in Jesus' name
