I found this prayer on an Anglican website and have set it to to music using an adapted Ukrainian hymn tune. It is sung here by a group of singers from the choir of St David's Church, Exeter (UK) during Communion on Mothering Sunday, 27th March 2022.  Thanks to Anna Lapwood for sourcing the original music and publishing on Twitter.
