7 Inspirational songs for Pentecost

By Michael Gryboski, Editor Twitter

Come, Holy Ghost

Labeled a “Pentecost favorite” by some, “Come, Holy Ghost” was written by Belgian Jesuit Louis Lambillotte, a popular sacred music composer who died in 1855.

Lambillotte is credited with reviving interest in Gregorian chants, with Catholic.org stating that he “rescued the music of Gregory from the darkness of ages.”

“By his writings the issue of Gregorian restoration was forced upon the world; by his researches and especially by the publication of the ‘Antiphonarium of St. Gregory’, this arduous enterprise was placed on a solid, scientific basis,” noted the site.
