Antti Aarne
Antti Amatus Aarne (December 5, 1867 – February 2, 1925) was a Finnish folklorist.
Background
Aarne was born in Pori (Finland). He was a student of Kaarle Krohn, the son of the folklorist Julius Krohn. He further developed their historic-geographic method of comparative folkloristics, and developed the initial version of what became the Aarne-Thompson classification system of classifying folktales, first published in 1910 and extended by Stith Thompson first in 1927 and again in 1961.
Early in 1925, Aarne died in Helsinki (Finland) where he had been a lecturer at the University since 1911 and where he had held a position as Professor extraordinarius since 1922.

Hear My Prayer

Hear my prayer,
Hear my prayer,
Hear my prayer,
Everybody, hear my prayer.
I want to see the Prince of Peace
Lookin' out for me.
I want to see the Prince of Peace
Lookin' out over me.
I want to hear the bells of peace
Ringin' out for me.
I want to hear the bells of peace
Ringin' out over me.

I want to hear a song of peace
Singin' out for me.
I want to hear a song of peace
Singin' out just for me.

Lookin' out for me.
I want to see the Prince of Peace
Lookin' out just for me.
