The Ukraine National Anthem

As you know terrible things have been happening in Ukraine. We thought that possibly you might find it useful to have two organ settings of the Ukrainian State Anthem—an easy one for manuals only by John Stallsmith and a slightly more difficult one for manuals and pedal by Dennis Janzer. Please feel free to use them as you wish. Both are available free of charge from our website. This is a link to an English translation of the anthem’s text.
We thought a prayer hymn also might be appropriate and useful: “How God, Who Calls Us Each by Name,” text by Mary Nelson Keithahn and tune by John D. Horman, from our publications and database of new hymn texts and tunes.
If your church has a OneLicense or CCLI license, please report any use of any of the above.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the Ukrainian people!
