Novena to the Holy Spirit - Day 5

Every day begin by praying the following prayer:

O Holy Spirit, divine Consoler!

I adore you as my True God.

I bless You, by uniting myself to the praises

You receive from the angels and saints.

I offer You my whole heart and I render You heartfelt thanks

for all the benefits You have bestowed

and do unceasingly bestow upon the world.

I beg You, Who are the Author of all supernatural gifts

And Who enriched with immense favors the soul

of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Mother of God,

to visit me by Your grace and Your love,

and grant me the favor I so earnestly seek in this novena

(Mention your request)

O Holy Spirit, Spirit of truth, come into our hearts;

shed the brightness of Your light on all nations,

that they may be of one faith and pleasing to You.

Amen.

Come, O Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful,
and kindle in them the fire of Your love!

Fifth Day

Come, O Spirit of sanctity, 

and send forth the radiance of Your light.

Father of all the poor, 

light and peace of all hearts, 

come with Your countless gifts.

Consoler in times of desolation, 

refreshment full of loveliness, 

come dear Friend of my soul.

In weariness, send repose; 

breathe gently cool refreshing breeze;

console the desolate who weep alone.

Light of Beatitude, 

make our hearts ready; 

come enter our souls.

Without Your grace, we stand alone; 

we cannot be good or sure.

Cleanse what is soiled; 

heal what is wounded; 

moisten what is arid.

Bend the stubborn will; 

warm the cold heart; 

and guide the wandering footstep.

Amen.
