    goodness, i remember singing this in primary school. its a catholic song, used to be in hymn books in church, probably still is. why dont you go to your local church and locate one of the hymn books which are normally put to one side. they are normally open for prayer visits during the day. either that or find the number of your local church/vicarage on the web. eg st t.... in.....(eg.followed by your borough ) and you should get a number. give the parish office/vicarage a call and ask them if its in the hymn book and can you come and take a copy of it. eg if they might do you a photocopy of it which you can pick up.
