Hymnus
Nunc, Sancte, nobis, Spíritus,
Unum Patri cum Fílio,
Dignáre promptus íngeri
Nostro refúsus péctori.

Confessiónem pérsonent.
Flamméscat igne cáritas,
Accéndat ardor próximos.

Cum Spíritu Paráclito

Amen.
Come Holy Ghost who ever One
Art with the Father and the Son,
It is the hour, our souls possess
With thy full flood of holiness.
Let flesh and heart and lips and mind
Sound forth our witness to mankind;
And love light up our mortal frame,
Till others catch the living flame.
Almighty Father, hear our cry,
Through Jesus Christ, our Lord most High,
Who, with the Holy Ghost and thee,
Doth live and reign eternally.
Amen.
