1) In this time of prayer waiting of what you will do
We hope and trust in your divine mercy
The more we become aware of your providential care
We love to be held in your fatherly arms
How all things work out for our greater good
How trials help us know and do all that we should
And how you plan everything that we become
Ever more  your holy daughters and sons

2) Some say and think that There’s nothing we can’t do
But in truth  nothing can we do without you
Some have elaborate designs and high utopian plans 

Forever I will sing the goodness of the Lord.

1) The bells are ringing loud and clear
For all of us to hear 
For us to rejoice who have ears to hear
As you pour forth grace
In these trials we all face
to be beacons of your light
and hope for the hopeless
in this darkest night

2) Ring them bells pope Leo
for all of us to hear 
how I love each and everyone
