A Prayer for Ukraine Lysenko

This ‘spiritual anthem’ of Ukraine was written some years ago by Oleksandr Konysky and set to music by Mykola Lysenko.

Lord, oh the Great and Almighty, 

Protect our beloved Ukraine, 

Bless her with freedom and light 

Of your holy rays. 

With learning and knowledge enlighten us, 

Your children small, 

In love pure and everlasting 

Let us, oh Lord, grow. 

We pray oh Lord Almighty, 

Protect our beloved Ukraine, 

Grant our people and country 

All your kindness and grace. 

Bless us with freedom, 

Bless us with wisdom, 

Guide into kind world, 

Bless us, oh Lord, with good fortune 

For ever and evermore.
