​ Pamphlets to Inspire

​                    Jan-1  ​ Plenary Indulgence for reciting

                                        the following prayer:

              Come, Holy Ghost, Creator blest (Veni, Creator):

 

Come, Holy Ghost, Creator blest,

and in our souls take up your rest;

come with your grace and heavenly aid

to fill the hearts which you have made. 

O Comforter, to you we cry,

O heavenly gift of God Most High,

O fount of life and fire of love,

and sweet anointing from above. 

You in your sevenfold gifts are known;

you, finger of God's hand we own;

You, promise of the Father,

you Who do the tongue with power imbue. 

Kindle our senses from above,

and make our hearts o'er flow with love;

with patience firm and virtue high,

the weakness of our flesh supply. 

Far from us drive the foe we dread,

and grant us your peace instead;

so shall we not, with you for guide,

turn from the path of life aside. 

Oh, may your grace on us bestow,

the Father and the Son to know;

and you, through endless times confessed,

of both the eternal Spirit blest. 

Now to the Father and the Son,

who rose from death, be glory given, with you,

O holy Comforter, henceforth by all in earth and heaven

Amen.
