Give them hope, give them strength, give them life
Like a candle burning through the black of night
We are with you in our hearts and in our minds
And we’ll pray for a nation through its darkest times

As the people of Ukraine fight to take their stands
And behind them, every honest willing man
In unity, there is each other, and your friend becomes your brother
And tyrant will never have its way

Give them hope, give them strength, give them life
Like a candle burning through the black of night
We are with you in our hearts and in our minds
And we’ll pray for a nation through its darkest time

Give them hope, give them strength, give them life
Like a candle burning through the black of night
We are with you in our hearts and in our minds
And we’ll pray for a nation through its darkest times

And the tyrant has no smile upon his face
‘Cause he knows that in his heart, he’s in disgrace
In unity, there is each other, and your friend becomes your brother
And the tyrant will never have its way

Give them hope, give them life
We are with you in our hearts and in our minds
And we’ll pray for a nation through its darkest times

Give them hope, give them life
As the people of Ukraine fight to take their stands
We are with you in our hearts and in our minds
And we’ll pray for a nation through its darkest times
