PRAYER, by                    
First Line: King of heavens! Release
Last Line: Give my heart strength to rise.
Alternate Author Name(s): Boratynsky, Yevgeny Abramovich


King of Heavens! Release
My sick soul to its peace!
For the errors of earth
Send oblivion's dearth;
To thy stern paradise
Give my heart strength to rise.
