Celebrant: I will give thee for a light to the Gentiles:
People: That thou mayest be my salvation unto the end of the earth.
Collects
Eternal Father, who at the baptism of Jesus didst reveal him as thy Son as thy Holy Spirit descended upon him like a dove: Mercifully grant that we, being regenerate by water and the Spirit, may live faithfully as thine adopted children; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the same Spirit, ever one God, world without end. Amen.
