Prayer To The
Holy Spirit
Holy
Spirit, Thou art the Third Person of the Blessed Trinity. Thou art the Spirit
of truth, love and holiness, proceeding from the Father and the Son, and equal to
Them in all things. I adore Thee and love Thee with
all my heart. Teach me to know and to seek God by whom and for whom I was
created. Fill my heart with a holy fear and a great love of Him. Give me
compunction and patience, and do not let me fall into sin.
Increase in me faith, hope and charity, and bring forth in
me all the virtues proper to my state of life. Help me to grow in the four
cardinal virtues, Thy seven gifts and Thy twelve Fruits. Make me a faithful
follower of Jesus Christ, an obedient child of the Church, and a help to my
neighbor. Give me the grace to keep the commandments and to receive the
Sacraments worthily. Raise me to holiness in the state of life to which Thou
hast called me, and lead me through a happy death to everlasting life, through
Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.
Glory be to the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost, as it is was
in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end, Amen
