Spirit of mercy, truth, and love,

O shed Thine influence from above;

And still from age to age convey

The wonders of this sacred day.

In every clime, by every tongue,

Be God's surpassing glory sung:

Let all the listening earth be taught

The deeds our great Redeemer wrought.

Unfailing Comfort, heavenly Guide,

Still o'er Thy holy Church preside;

Still let mankind Thy blessings prove,

Spirit of mercy, truth, and love.

Amen.
