ordination music

Can anyone tell me what piece of church music is being played in the background while Steve is being ordained? I know the tune from my school choir days, but the words just won't come back - sorry Sr. Brigid!

The music is 'Veni Creator Spiritus'. The first verse is sung: Veni creator spiritus, Mentes tuorum visita: Imple superna gratia Quae tu creasti pectora. Remember it now?

Thank you for your reply. I had actually found out what the piece was, by "borrowing" one of my local nuns and getting her to watch the scene with me!
