Original

O God, send forth your Holy Spirit
into my heart that I may perceive,
into my mind that I may remember,
and into my soul that I may meditate.

Inspire me to speak
with piety, holiness, tenderness and mercy.

Teach, guide and direct
my thoughts and senses
from beginning to end.

May your grace ever help and correct me,
and may I be strengthened now
with wisdom from on high,
for the sake of your infinite mercy.

Amen.
