Espírito Santo
Ghislaine Cantini
Holy Spirit
Spirit of God,
Send from the heavens
A ray of light!
Come, father of the poor
Give to the hearts
Your seven gifts
Consolation that calms
Guest of the soul
Sweet relief come!
In labor, rest
In affliction, solace
In heat, breeze
Cleanse the dirty
Water the dry
Heal the sick
Softening what is hard
Guide in the dark
Warm the cold
Fill with blessed light
Flame that crackles
The innermost of us
Without the light that aids, man can do nothing
No good in him
Give to your church, which waits and desires
Your seven gifts
Give as a reward to the strong, a holy death
Eternal joy
Amen, amen.
