This piece portrays a childlike confidence in the promises of God through a tender, richly harmonious blending of two hymns Children of the Heavenly Father (TRYGGARE KAN INGEN VARA) and I Am Jesus Little Lamb (WEIL ICH JESU SCHAFLEIN BIN) woven into a tapestry of textures and dynamic variation. The melodies shift from octave to octave, giving all ringers a chance to play the melodies. (3-5 octaves/ 32 bells-46 bells).
