Trinity MacQueen sings prayer for peace

The Diocese of East Anglia Ignite Youth Team have recorded a song, as a prayer for peace in Ukraine, set to traditional Irish melody Danny Boy, in time for St Patrick's Day.

As part of their Third Thursday online assembly for schools, the team, led by Director of Youth Service, Hamish MacQueen, recorded A Prayer for Peace In Ukraine, set to the traditional Irish tune Londonderry Air, which many people know as Danny Boy.

Hamish, who wrote the words, said: "I'm sure I'm not alone when I feel helpless at seeing the horrific suffering in Ukraine - but one thing we can do is pray! We hope this song helps people - young and old - to pray for peace in Ukraine."

Hamish was joined by his teenage daughter Trinity, a student at Notre Dame High School in Norwich and a member of St George's Parish on vocals and on piano by Ray Travasso from St Mary's, Woodbridge Road, Ipswich.
