Hauting prayer - ''Տեր ողորմեա'' - Lord, have mercy

Sunday. Ps. 141:2 "Let my prayer be counted as incense before you, and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice!"

"Young Armenian woman sings haunting prayer in former cathedral. Her moving hymn evokes loss and tragedy as well as faith and hope":

"A young Armenian woman spontaneously sings a prayer called “Lord Have Mercy” in the Church of the Holy Cross in Lake Van on Akdamar Island, Eastern Turkey. Oblivious to others, she is focused on an icon as she lifts her voice in heartfelt prayer. This church was a medieval cathedral and belonged to the Armenians before the Armenian genocide by the Turks in 1915."

Gripande sjungen bön "Herre, förbarma dig" sjungen av en ung armenisk kvinna i en medeltida katedral i Turkiet som nu är ett museum. Katedralen tillhörde armenierna innan folkmordet 1915.
