Ever-faithful God, to those reborn of water and the Spirit you open the gates of your heavenly kingdom. Increase within us the grace of baptism, that we who have been cleansed from sin may never lack the blessings you promise. We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God for ever and ever. Amen

1 Shout for joy to God, all the earth!
2 Sing the glory of his name;
    make his praise glorious.
3 Say to God, “How awesome are your deeds!
    So great is your power that your enemies cringe before you.
4 All the earth bows down to you;
    they sing praise to you, they sing the praises of your name.”
5 Come and see what God has done,
    his awesome deeds for mankind!
6 He turned the sea into dry land,
    they passed through the waters on foot—
    come, let us rejoice in him.
7 He rules forever by his power, his eyes watch the nations—
    let not the rebellious rise up against him.

Psalm 66 - English Standard Version
