1 O blessed Holy Trinity,
Divine, eternal Unity,
God Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
Be Thou this day my Guide and Host.
2 My soul and body keep from harm,
O'er all I have extend Thine arm.
That Satan may not cause distress
Nor bring me shame and wretchedness.
3 The Father's love shield me this day,
The Son's pure wisdom cheer my way;
The Holy Spirit's light divine
Illume my heart's benighted shrine.
4 My Maker, strengthen Thou my heart;
O my Redeemer, help impart;
Blest Comforter, keep at my side
That faith and love in me abide.
5 Lord, bless and keep Thou me as Thine;
Lord, make Thy face upon me shine;
Lord, lift Thy countenance on me
And give me peace, sweet peace, from Thee.
