Veni Creator spiritus
mentes tuorum visita
imple su perna gratia
quae tu creas ti pectora
qui di ceras Pa raclitus
altissimi do num Dei
fons vivus ignis caritas
et Spirit ualis unctio
Veni Creator Spiritus
mentes tu orum visita
imple su perna gratia
quae tu creas ti pectora
Spirit Creator of mankind
come visit ev'ry pious mind
and sweetly let thy grace invade our hearts
O Lord which thou hast made
Thou art the comforter whom all
gift of the highest God must call
the living fountain fire and love
the ghostly unction from above
Spirit Creator of mankind
come visit ev'ry pious mind
And sweetly let thy grace invade our hearts
O Lord which thou hast made
