Holy Spirit leads us

Prayer of St Augustine:

Breathe in us, O Holy Spirit, that our thoughts may be holy.

Act in us, O Holy Spirit, that our work, too, may be holy.

Draw our heart, O Holy Spirit, that we love but what is holy.

Strengthen us, O Holy Spirit, to defend all that is holy.

Guard us, then, O Holy Spirit, that we always may be holy.

Breathe in us, O Holy Spirit, that our thoughts may be holy.

Act in us, O Holy Spirit, that our work, too, may be holy.

Draw our hearts, O Holy Spirit, that we love but what is holy.

Strengthen us, O Holy Spirit, to defend all that is holy.

Guard us, then, O Holy Spirit, that we always may be holy, that we always may be holy. Amen.
