Abibe, O Spirit

Adapted from the prayer used before each session of Vatican II This prayer may have been composed by St. Isidore of Seville, for use during a council held there in 619 and again later in 633. It was used before each session of Vatican I in 1869-70, and it was used before each meeting of Vatican II. It has been adapted here for use in today’s church.
