Molytva za Ukrayinu - Prayer for Ukraine World Children’s Choir invites children, teens, and adults from all nations to sing in our new virtual video, “Prayer for Ukraine.” The video will be included in an online benefit concert for the Voices of Ukraine Foundation on November 13, 2022. Recordings must be made on or before October 1, 2022. “Molytva za Ukrayinu” is a patriotic Ukrainian hymn published in 1885 with a children’s choir in mind. The text was written by Oleksandr Konysky, and the music was composed by Mykola Lysenko. It has become the spiritual anthem of Ukraine.
