Music: "O Heiliger Geist," Geistliche Kirchengesang (K÷ln, Germany: 1623)
O Spirit of Life, O Spirit of God,
In every need Thou bringest aid,
Thou camest forth from God's great throne,
From God, the Father and the Son;
O Spirit of Life, O Spirit of God.
O Spirit of Life, O Spirit of God,
Make us to love Thy sacred Word;
The holy flame of love impart,
That charity may warm each heart;
O Spirit of Life, O Spirit of God.
O Spirit of Life, O Spirit of God,
Increase our faith in our dear Lord;
Unless Thy grace the power should give,
None can believe in Christ and live;
O Spirit of Life, O Spirit of God.
O Spirit of Life, O Spirit of God,
Enlighten us by Thy blest Word;
Teach us to know the Father's love,
And His dear Son, Who reigns above:
O Spirit of Life, O Spirit of God.
