O Divine Holy Spirit,
eternal Love of the Father and of the Son,
I adore you, I thank you, I love you,
and I ask you pardon for all the times
I have grieved you in myself
and in my neighbor.
Descend with many graces during
the holy ordination of bishops and priests,
during the consecration
of men and women religious,
during the reception of Confirmation
by all the faithful;
be light, sanctity, and zeal.
To you, Spirit of Truth,
I consecrate my mind, imagination,
and memory; enlighten me.
May I know Jesus Christ, our Master,
and understand his Gospel
and the teaching of holy Church.
Increase in me the gifts of wisdom,
knowledge, understanding, and counsel.
To you, sanctifying Spirit,
I consecrate my will.
Guide me in your will,
sustain me in the observance
of the Commandments,
in the fulfillment of my duties.
Grant me the gifts of fortitude
and holy fear of God.
To you, life-giving Spirit,
I consecrate my heart.
Guard and increase the divine life in me.
Grant me the gift of piety. Amen.
