1 Holy Spirit, hear us;
help us while we sing;
breathe into the music
of the praise we bring.
2 Holy Spirit, prompt us
when we try to pray;
nearer come and teach us
what we ought to say.
3 Holy Spirit, speak now
through this book we read;
on its living pages
shine the light we need.
4 Holy Spirit, give us
Jesus' heart and mind;
make us as our Teacher:
loving, strong and kind.
5 Holy Spirit, help us
daily by your might,
what is wrong, to conquer,
and to choose the right.
