God, Save Ukraine English version of Боже, Україну збережи/Lord, Have Mercy on Ukraine T.Petrinenko

#standwithukraine
God, Save Ukraine is the famous Ukrainian song-prayer by Taras Petrinenko. At the beginning of the war in 2022 in Ukraine, he provided his permit to Xanna Kozakova to translate this song into English to sing for all English-speaking friends. The song is addressed to Our God to listen to all prayers about Ukraine and its children. The idea belongs to @Allen Stock KXNT Newsradio who interviewed Xanna Kozakova about the events in Ukraine, and how she managed to shoot a video clip for the song with the support of her friends just at the beginning of the war in the city of Kyiv in February 2022.

English version of this song:
Even at the last defensive line
Our ray of faith has not gone out,
God, please save Ukraine,
Lord, have mercy on us.

Shine us with Your grace
With the truth everywhere and forever
God, please save Ukraine,
Lord, have mercy on us.

Mercy,
Oh, Lord, Have mercy,
Lord, have mercy on us.

Bullets and knives are in our chests,
We were crucified and destroyed many times,
God, save Ukraine,
Lord, have mercy on us.

Help us to rise from the knees
And bless us with a peaceful time
God, please save suffering Ukraine,
Lord, have mercy on us.

Mercy,
Oh, Lord, Have mercy,
Lord, have mercy on us.

Our souls are burning in the flames
But the ray of faith has not gone out,
God, please save suffering Ukraine,
Lord, have mercy on us.

A child of Ukraine is a child just the same,
Heavenly Father, hear the cries,
God, please save Ukraine,
Lord, have mercy on us.

AMEN
