Chorus
One heart, one soul
Cor Unum, et Anima Una.
Lord, renew your fire within us again

I am a Spiritan.
Following the steps of a young man who spent himself serving the poor.

I am a Spiritan
Taking up the courage of a man who, despite health challenges, gave himself for the mission to the ends of the earth.

I am a Spiritan
Formed by the Spirit
Ready for mission when duty calls.
Wired for difficult missions
United with brothers
In one heart and one soul.

In 1703, the fire was ignited
From one end beyond frontier
Spreading the kingdom of Christ.
We celebrate our founding fathers.
We celebrate the fire.
Our story we must tell.
