A Ukrainian Prayer, John Rutter

Posted on YouTube on https://youtu.be/lJl3kVwl2-U

From John Rutter,

How can a composer respond to a global tragedy? The first thing I wanted to do was write some music that would respond in my own way. I hope the meaning of the text will resonate in people's hearts and reach out to the people of Ukraine in their hour of need. JR 

Боже, Україну храни Дай нам силу, вірі, й надії Отче наш, Отче наш Амінь 

A literal translation of the text is: Lord, protect Ukraine. Give us strength, faith, and hope, our Father. Amen
