I believe that that the music is by Handel. The words to the chimes though this may not be what is on the plaque are "All through this hour, Lord be my guide, And by thy power, No foot shall slide." This may not be what the plaque is about though.

Spot on LeM. Just checked the DVD to confirm and it is this indeed what the plaque says...Though Mr. Connolly was funnier :>)
