The 1625 coronation of King Charles I used a translation of the Latin hymn to the Holy Spirit, Veni, Creator Spiritus, or, Come, Holy Spirit, by John Cosin.

And after it was included in the 1662 Book of Common Prayer, it came to be included in services of confirmation and ordination as we recall the royal priesthood in which we all participate. It prays that we may live always within the breath of Jesus Christ, receiving life from him, so that he may inspire in us authentic life, the life that death can never take away.
