Mist sympatiyi

Instrumental
About the scenes of the elderly, children, and the disabled trying to flee the war over destroyed bridges… and how the world is offering a bridge of love.

Instrumental’nyy
Pro stseny starykh lyudey, ditey ta invalidiv, yaki namahayut’sya vtekty vid viyny cherez zruynovani mosty… i yak svit proponuye mist lyubovi.

“The Ukraine military wrote early Friday morning that a soldier blew himself up on a bridge to stop Russian soldiers trying to advance.

Vitaliy Volodymyrovych Skakun was an engineer for a battalion of marines on the Crimean isthmus, where Russian tanks and military forces began to advance into Ukraine.

The marines decided to blow up the Genichesky Bridge to stop the invasion, a task for which Skakun volunteered despite being in a different battalion.

Skakun placed mines on the bridge and told his fellow soldiers that he was blowing up the bridge. The bridge blew up before Skakun was able to run away, and he died in the explosion.

“His heroic deed significantly slowed the advance of the enemy, which allowed the unit to redeploy and organize the defense,” wrote the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine of Skakun in a Facebook post.” — The Hill

Molchaniye voyny

A song about the bombing of Ukraine and the destruction of a children’s hospital in Mariupol that has been destroyed by Russian air strikes.

LYRICS
In the aftermath
Of satin’s wrath
The screams heard no more
The silence of war
No more exploding shells
Machines from hell
Wailing siren
Nor enemy firing
… sounds of children dying
Will we ever learn
Nothing to earn
When our homes burn

Matthew 24:4-8
Jesus said, “Watch out for doomsday deceivers. Many leaders are going to show up with forged identities, claiming, ‘I am Christ, the Messiah.’ They will deceive a lot of people. When reports come in of wars and rumored wars, keep your head and don’t panic. This is routine history; this is no sign of the end. Nation will fight nation and ruler fight ruler, over and over. Famines and earthquakes will occur in various places. This is nothing compared to what is coming.
