The Saxon Gospel - The Heliand

Supposedly written by Charlemagne's son 'The Heliand' (a saxon word for 'saviour') is a retelling of the life Jesus in 6000 lines for a Saxon audience.

One writer says of it:

The anonymous author of the Heliand lived in the first half of the ninth century. His work is addressed to his fellow Saxons, who had recently been forcibly converted to Christianity at the hands of their Frankish overlords. The poet of the Heliand does not force his audience to make the heart-rending choice between the ‘old’ and the ‘new’ way, but weaves the Christian narrative about Jesus of Nazareth into the wider framework of Nordic mythology. 

The disciples are called the 'warrior companions'

The Lord's Prayer (the Fadar Usa) is translated as:

Father of us, the sons of men,
You are in the high heavenly kingdom,
Blessed be Your name in every word.
May Your mighty kingdom come.
May Your will be done over all this world,
just the same on earth as it is up there
in the high heavenly kingdom.
Give us support each day, good chieftain,
your holy help, and pardon us, Protector of Heaven,
our many crimes, just as we do to other human beings.
Do not let evil little creatures lead us off
to do their will, as we deserve,
but help us against all evil deeds.
