Otche nash, susthiy na nebesah,

Da priidet tsarstvye tvoye,

Da budet volya tvoya

I na zemle kak na nebe.

Hleb nash nasusthnyiy dai nam na sey den,

Kak i myi prosthae dolnikam nashim,

I ne vvedi nas v iskushenye,

No izbav nas ot lukavogo. Amin.

@Johantomtom It's called church Slavonic. Used to hear it exclusively when I was a kid, but now only occasionally. As an aside, my preference is the old stuff . . . hearing it brings back beautiful memories. I make an annual pilgrimage to St. Tikhon's Monastery in South Canaan, PA, and this year the choir was all male. They sang a lot of hymns in Slavonic, including some of my favorites. I thought I was in heaven!

Молодцы старички иностранские! Спели - как помолились.

@tanklvhi - Otche Nash is written in Ancient Slavic language )

[FrZugger]

Tak - Da - Yes it is.

[Johantomtom]

Yes, so far I know, theSlavian Orthodox Church is the used language Church-Slavian

Like Latin in the church of Rome

Ukrainian church music is very emotional an uplifting!

The church I was brought up in sang it nice and upbeat - if not quick - but when I attended the same church in London - they dragggggggggged it out interminably - it was sooooo slow - I wanted to snap my fingers to make it more lively!

I find it interesting that the Otche Nash is the exact same words I learned as a young boy from my mother and grandmothers - is it really the same in Russian and Ukrainian?

"The Lord's Prayer"

Composer: KEDROV.

[RadosteBozha]

I agree!

[lichtbroeder]

Russian liturgical music was originally more "spiritual", less emotional. I do not mean this in a negative way. For centuries, liturgical music was passionless - it spoke of joy and suffering without stirring the emotions. This music was influenced very much by 19th century Russian composers.

This is my favorite rendition of the "Our Father"
