Be merciful to us - hear us, Holy Spirit, God!

From audacious trust in God's mercy - save us, Holy Spirit, God!

From all despair about God's grace,

From opposing recognized Christian truth,

From unkindness and envy to the brothers of God's grace,

From a hard heart,

From neglecting repentance to death,

From all bad and unclean things and thoughts;

From sudden and unexpected death,

From eternal damnation,

Through a wonderful work at the conception of Jesus Christ,

By your coming in fiery tongues, We are the sinners, Please, hear us, Holy Spirit, God!

That you would deign to rule and preserve your holy Church, We ask you - hear us, Holy Spirit, God!

That You would deign to confirm us in piety and humility,

That You would deign to grant us constancy and courage, That you would deign to lift up our thoughts to the desire of heavenly things,

He deigned to purify us and sacrifice us for a decent dwelling,

That you would deign to console us in our sufferings,

That You would deign to confirm and preserve us in Your grace,

That You would deign to lead us all to the eternal glory. That we may love You and keep sins for You,

Lamb of God, who take away the sins of the world, let us pass, Lord!

Lamb of God, who take away the sins of the world, hear us out, Lord!

Lamb of God, who take away the sins of the world, have mercy on us!

K. Create in me a pure heart, God!

W. And renew the Spirit of righteousness within me.

K. Lord, hear our prayers.

W. Let our cry come to you.

Let's pray. Come on over, Holy Spirit! Deign to fill the hearts of your faithful servants and kindle the fire of your love in them, you have gathered all nations in unity of faith, that your most holy grace may enlighten our hearts and protect them from all evil.

W. Amen.
