Prayer to the Holy Spirit

Prayer to the Holy Spirit

by St. Augutine

Breathe in me, O Holy Spirit,

that my thoughts may all be holy.
Act in me, O Holy Spirit,

that my work, too, may be holy.
Draw my heart, O Holy Spirit,

that I love but what is holy.
Strengthen me, O Holy Spirit,

to defend all that is holy.
Guard me, then, O Holy Spirit,

that I always may be holy. Amen.
