Creator Holy Spirit come and fill
That hungry hearts of men upon this earth
Your fire’s flames defeat the cold and chill
And stir to life the embers of the hearth
Creator Spirit,- He Who gently broods
And ceaselessly inspires and creates
Who nurtures, breathing, seedling plants and shoots
And kindles, fosters, lures and animates
Afflatus Spiritus Who fostering lifts
And raises what is weak to fortitude
Bestow on us your nine effulgent gifts
And breathe on them to yield abundant fruit.
Spirit of Understanding, Wisdom, Love,-
Enflame and rouse the wavering tepid hearts,
Inspiring mover!- hovering like a dove
Heal, cleanse and seal the festering wounds and smarts.
Spirit of God - you champion of the poor
Defender, Councilor and Advocate,
For the afflicted, Lord, provide a cure,
And stir, regenerate and animate!
Sustain the hopeless faltering that grope
And cannot cope with burdens’ weight and strain,
Fill hopeless aching human hearts with hope
And comfort in adversity and pain.
Breathe wind divine and make the wind abound,
Recover, hover, cover and abide,-
Afflatus Spiritus, our being’s ground,
True God of God, eternal Light of Light.
