"Der Geist des Herrn erfüllt das All" (The Spirit of the Lord fills the universe) is a Christian hymn for Pentecost by Maria Luise Thurmair, written in 1941.
[5] The song appeared in the Catholic hymnal Gotteslob in 1975 as GL 249, in four stanzas with a 1609 melody by Melchior Vulpius.
[4][2] In the current Gotteslob it is GL 347, in the section "Pfingsten – Heiliger Geist" (Pentecost – Holy Spirit).
The last stanza uses images of the spirit as storm throughout the world with a breath of fire, making God's Kingdom alive ("wird Gottes Reich lebendig").
[4] Johann Paul Zehetbauer composed a setting for a four-part mixed choir, published by the Promultis-Verlag in Munich in 2003.
