God bless this man and his brothers.

A Warrior’s Blessing

May your sword be ever sharp and your arm strong.

May your eyes be keen and arrows flight true.

May your lance never break and your body endure.

May your knife be ever at hand in need and your mind ever vigilant and alert as to the enemy's intent.

And I pray that God would watch over you and keep you, so that you may return home in valor,

to enjoy that which you have defended,

living out your life in peace, and prosperity to the end of your days.

The story is a little light. Doesn’t say WHY they asked him to sing.

This is my favorite recording of a song with that title:

MY good blade carves the casques of men,
My tough lance thrusteth sure,
My strength is as the strength of ten,
Because my heart is pure.
The shattering trumpet shrilleth high,
The hard brands shiver on the steel,
The splinter’d spear-shafts crack and fly,
The horse and rider reel:
They reel, they roll in clanging lists,
And when the tide of combat stands,
