God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ has freed you from sin, given you a new birth by water and the Holy Spirit, and welcomed you into his holy people. He now anoints you with the chrism of salvation.

As we anoint Priest, Prophet and King, so may you always live as a member of his body, sharing  everlasting life. (Rite of Baptism)
