Lord, hear our prayer
for Ukraine, for her people,
carrying our burden
holding high their banner
standing against Moskal’s horde,
in a fight they never wanted,
fighting because they must
for their nation to survive,
to continue to exist...
 
May real partners rise up
honest about the pain they endure,
because we are timid,
because we are complacent
because we are complicit in blood
in their torment, silent
when we must speak, when we must act,
against Russia, against genocide,
the evil of this war...
 
Lord, bring a just peace
to the people of Ukraine
May they heal...
from the great pain they carry
the evil they have endured...
May Your light pierce the darkness...
May evil be defeated...
May Ukraine be restored...
May they live in peace...
 
Amen
