LITANY OF THE HOLX GHOST.

Holv, loving, as Thou art, All Thy sevenfold gifts impart, Nevermore from us depart;

Hear us, Holy SPIRIT. Amen.

Litanp of the Church.

OD the FATHEER, GoD the 80N, Gop the SPIRIT, THREE in ONE, Hèar us from Thy heavenly Throne, Spare us, Holy TRINITY.

JIESU, with Thy Church abide,

Be her Saviour, LoRp, and Guide,

While on earth her faith is tried: We beseech Thee, hear us.

Arms of love around her throw, Snield her safe from every foe, Oomfort her in time of woe:

We beseech Thee, hear us.

Keep her life and doctrine pure, Grant her patience to endure, Trusting in Thy promise sure:

We beseech Thee, hear us.

May her voice be ever clear, Warning of a judgment near, Telling of a Saviour dear:

We beseech Thee, hear us.

All her fettered powers release,

Bid our strife and envy cease,

Grant the heavenly gift of peace: We beseech Thee, Dead us.

All that she has lost restore,

May her strength and zeal be more

Than in brightest days of vyore: We beseech Thee, hear us.

May she one in doctrine be, One in truth and charity, Winning all to faith in Thee: We beseech Thee, hear us.

May she guide the poor and blind, Seek the lost until she find, And the broken-hearted bind:

We beseech Thee, hear us.

save her love from growing cold, Make her watchmen strong and bold, Fence her round, Thy peaceful fold: We beseech Thee, hear us. (296)
