Lyrics
Ukraine Lullaby
(c)2026 Eric J. Dorer (BMI), All Rights Reserved
Hush my shooting star
There is no time for goodbyes
Papa promises to move Heaven and earth
To be home for the flowers of summertime
Love is never cold
And our memories survive
Sure and certain
Pure and true
Never lost to fate or time
Cold wind
Rain, snow
Fire, ice, pain
Slow march
Still hope
Modest gain
Hold the things you love
Ever precious in your mind
Golden sunlight cleanses sorrow and fear
Leaving hope
To rise from night’s decline
Truth does not grow old
And it overcomes the lie
Stand on wisdom
Walk in truth
And may God become your guide
Cold wind
Rain, snow
Fire, ice, pain
Slow march
Still hope
Modest gain
Hush my shooting star
There is no time for goodbyes
Papa promises to move Heaven and earth
To be home for the flowers of summertime
