Baldur and Nanna
Brave Warrior,
Shining Lord of Justice and Mercy,
We ask for Your blessings and
grace.
Compassion flows from Your strong heart and noble brow.
Fearless Lord of
Death and rebirth,
Intrepid, You have braved the realm of Hel,
So that we,
children of the Gods, might have a champion
To greet us when we too make this
perilous journey.
Warrior-born, fill our hearts with Thy quiet courage.
Do not let
us falter on our life’s journey.
Teach us serenity of spirit,
That we might
face the turmoil of our lives joyously,
Embracing destiny without fear.
Open our hearts and let us not shrink in terror
From our descent into the
earth,
But find in Her dark depths spiritual renewal.
May we live lives of
courage, passion, and valor.
Hail, Baldur!
Gentle Nanna, Baldur’s devoted
wife,
Extend over us Your blessings and protection,
For we often struggle in our
lives feeling lost and alone.
Stand with us as You stood with Baldur,
Even
joining Him in Hel’s realm.
Sustain us, nourish us,
And grant us the gift of Your
compassion.
Hail Nanna, Daring and Bold,
Compassionate One, Hail.
