English text
- Come, Thou Holy Spirit, Come,
- And from Thy celestial home
- Shed a ray of light Divine,
- Halelujah, Halelujah, Halelujah !
- Come, Thou Father of the poor,
- Come, Thou source of all our store,
- Come within our bosoms shine,
- Halelujah, Halelujah, Halelujah !
- Thou of Comforters the best,
- Thou the soul's most welcome guest,
- Sweet refreshment here below,
- Halelujah, Halelujah, Halelujah !
- In our labor rest most sweet,
- Grateful coolness in the heat,
- Solace in the midst of woe.
- Halelujah, Halelujah, Halelujah !
- Fill the faithful who adore,
- And confess Thee evermore,
- In Thy sevenfold gifts descend,
- Halelujah, Halelujah, Halelujah !
- Give them virtue's sure reward,
- Give them Thy salvation, Lord,
- And them joys that never end,
- Halelujah, Halelujah, Halelujah !
- Amen.
