The Choir of St. Mary's Episcopal Cathedral - Come, Holy Ghost, Our Souls Inspire Lyrics

Come, Holy Ghost, our souls inspire
And lighten with celestial fire
Thou the anointing Spirit art
Who dost thy sevenfold gifts impart

Thy blessed unction from above
Is comfort, life, and fire of love
Enable with perpetual light
The dullness of our blinded sight

Anoint and cheer our soiled face
With the abundance of Thy grace
Keep far from foes, give peace at home
Where art guide, no ill can come

Teach us to know the Father, Son
And thee, of both, to be but One
That through the ages all along
This may be our endless song

Praise to Thy eternal merit
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit
Amen
