Njord's Frith Prayer

bluesailboatNjord, peace-weaver, pledge of the Vanir,

Hostage of Gods, hospitality's God,

Grant us to find for the ship of our life

Safe space in your harbour, respite from all storms.

The sea-harvest's bounty, fair riches you share;

So let's to our guests be generous and gracious,

Offer them bread and salt and protection -

Let's for each other be havens of frith.
