Hymnus an den heiligen Geist

Language: German (Deutsch)

Available translation(s): CAT ENG FRE

Herr, unser Gott! erhöre unser Flehen,
Die sehnend auf zu dir, zu dir, Allgüt'ger, sehen;
Herab auf uns sieh', Tröster du,
In unser Herz leg' Himmelsruh'!

Erfülle uns mit Kraft und Glaubensmuth,
Verlass' auf unserm Pfad uns nicht!
Es leite uns zu dem, was recht und gut.
O Herr, verlass' uns nicht!

Note: This is the text which was published with the first edition of Schubert's Hymnus an den heiligen Geist as op. posth. 154 by Anton Diabelli in 1849. Schubert's manuscript conveys a rather different text.

Himne a l’Esperit Sant

Language: Catalan (Català) after the German (Deutsch)

Senyor, Déu nostre! Escolta les nostres súpliques,
que amb anhel s’adrecen a tu, a tu,
bondat infinita;
esguarda cap baix, vers nosaltres, tu que reconfortes,
diposita la pau celestial als nostres cors!
Omple’ns amb la força i el coratge de la fe,
no ens abandonis en el nostre camí!
Que siguem conduïts a tot el que és just i bo.
Oh Senyor, no ens abandonis!
