Holy Spirit! Lord of light! From Thy clear celestial height, Thy pure beaming radiance give!
Only one thing is important- eternal salvation. One one thing, therefore, is to be feared- sin. Sin is the result of ignorance, weakness, and indifference. The Holy Ghost is the Spirit of Light, of Strength and with His sevenfold gifts He enlightens the mind, strengthens the will and inflames the heart with the love of God. To ensure our salvation we ought to invoke the Divine Spirit daily, for “The Spirit helpeth our infirmity. We know not what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself asketh for us.”
ALMIGHTY AND ETERNAL GOD, WHO HAST VOUCHSAFED TO REGENERATE US BY WATER AND THE HOLY GHOST, AND HAST GIVEN US THE FORGIVENESS OF ALL SINS, VOUCHSAFE TO SEND FORTH FROM HEAVEN UPON US THY SEVENFOLD SPIRIT, THE SPIRIT OF WISDOM AND UNDERSTANDING, THE SPIRIT OF COUNSEL AND FORTITUDE, THE SPIRIT OF KNOWLEDGE AND PIETY, AND FILL US WITH THE SPIRIT OF HOLY FEAR. AMEN.
Then say the Our Father and Hail Mary ONCE and the Glory Be SEVEN TIMES.
