“A thirteenth I know, if a thane full young
With water I sprinkle well;
He shall not fall, though he fares mid the host,
Nor sink beneath the swords.”
~Hávamál 159, Bellows 

This stanza refers to Ausa Vatni; sprinkling a baby with water, and dedication to a deity.
Art by Christian Krohg, 1899. ᛚ

“Þat kann ek it þrettánda: ef ek skal þegn ungan verpa vatni á, mun-at hann falla, þótt hann í folk komi, hnígr-a sá halr fyr hjörum.”

Here is a good devotional song from Anzus Society.

Lyrics:

Far away in the star filled night
We fly with the wind beyond all sight
Into the sky like the roaring flame
Shed your skin and forget your name

Hail to the one who hung from the tree
For 9 long nights he swayed in the breeze
To bring forth the secret signs of the void
The lord of the dead the self he destroys

Traveling quick with the spirits and ghosts
Through the village and fringe we pierce every host
Gathering all those secret signs
That create our world as we journey through time

Hail to the 3 who dictate life
How long that we live and how much strife
Favor us now who sing your praise
The keepers of the web please stretch our days

Soar on the wind under full moon light
And the howling wolves fill cracks in the night
This primal force that burns in the soul
Guiding our path under Ymir’s skull

Sit at the foot of the ancient tree
And offer yourself with what your bleed
Water the roots which stretch in the earth
And hold the son who awaits rebirth

Hail Thor!
