O Holy Spirit,
Divine Spirit of light and love,
I consecrate to Thee my understanding,
Heart and will,
my whole being for time and eternity.
May my understanding be always submissive 
to Thy heavenly inspirations,
and to the teaching of the Catholic Church,
of which Thou are the infallible guide;
may my heart be ever inflamed 
with love of God and of my neighbor,
may my will be ever conformed to the divine will,
and may my whole life be a faithful imitation of the life
and virtues of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ,
to whom with the Father and Thee
be honour and glory forever.

Amen.
