Prayer to the Holy Spirit Come, O Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful, and enkindle in them the fire of your love. V. Send forth your Spirit, and they shall be created. R. And you shall renew the face of the earth. Let us pray: O God, who by the light of the Holy Spirit did instruct the hearts of the faithful, grant that in the same Spirit we may be truly wise, and ever rejoice in his consolation. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
