The Second Merseburg Charm, which recounts Odin healing Baldr’s horse, has multiple later 18-19th Century parallels in Scandinavia, Scotland and Saxony, wherein Jesus or St. Olaf take the place of Odin, which shows this particular healing charm was widely known. 
They all follow a very similar formula; always along similar lines of “bone to bone, blood to blood,” etc. and would be recited when applying bandages.

Jacob Grimm collected multiple examples from Norway, Sweden, Denmark, and the Shetland Islands. One example from Norway;
“Jesus himself rode to the heath,
And as he rode, his horse's bone was broken.
Jesus dismounted and healed that:
Jesus laid marrow to marrow,
Bone to bone, flesh to flesh.
Jesus thereafter laid a leaf
So that these should stay in their place.”

Artur Hazelius recorded one from Småland, Sweden, brazenly invoking Odin in the 19th Century.
“Odin rides over rock and hill;
He rides his horse out of dislocation and into realignment,
Out of disorder and into order, bone to bone, joint to joint,
As it was best, when it was whole.”

Book 4, hymn 12 of the Atharvaveda contains a very similar healing charm for a broken bone;
“Thou art the healer, making whole, the healer of the broken bone:
Make thou this whole, Arundhatī!
Whatever bone of thine within thy body hath been wrenched or cracked,
May Dhātar set it properly and join together limb by limb.
With marrow be the marrow joined, thy limb united with the limb.
Let what hath fallen of thy flesh, and the bone also grow again.
Let marrow close with marrow, let skin grow united with the skin.
Let blood and bone grow strong in thee, flesh grow together with the flesh.
Join thou together hair with hair, join thou together skin with skin.
Let blood and bone grow strong in thee. Unite the broken part, O Plant.
Arise, advance, speed forth; the car (chariot?) hath goodly fellies, naves, and wheels!
Stand up erect upon thy feet.
If he be torn and shattered, having fallen into a pit, or a cast stone have struck him,
Let the skilled leech join limb with limb, as 'twere the portions of a car.”
~Griffith translation

In the Vǫluspá, we learn that the Gods were loving—ástgir—when They created us. The component ást means "love" or "affection", thus rendering ástgir as "loving" or "affectionate". In Old English, the word would be ēstig.

This provides Germanic Pagans with a valuable insight into the nature of our Gods, specifically Óðinn, Hœnir, and Lóðurr—the three Gods responsible for our creation.

Make sacrifices to your Gods often. They will listen.
