Everlasting memory – Вічная пам’ять!
God of spirits and all flesh, You trampled death,
You made the devil powerless, and You gave life to Your world.
Now, O Lord, to the soul of Your servant,
the priest Volodymyr
who has fallen asleep,
grant rest in a place of light,
a place of verdure, and a place of tranquility,
from which pain, sorrow and mourning have fled,
As the good and loving God,
forgive every sin of thought, word or deed he has committed,
There is no one who will live and will not sin,
for You alone are sinless.
Your justice is everlasting justice and Your word is truth.
For You, O Christ our God,
are the Resurrection, the Life and the Repose of Your servant,
the priest Volodymyr
who has fallen asleep:
and we give glory to You, together with Your eternal Father
and You most holy, good and life-giving Spirit
now and forever and ever. Amen.
