"The Convent" is from the 2012 film version of Les Misérables. It is sung after "Suddenly," where Valjean and Cosette find shelter at the convent with help from Fauchelevant, after being chased by Javert through the streets of Paris. In the background, hymns may be hear, which are sung to a similar tune to that of "Valjean Forgiven/The Bishop"
Lyrics
Valjean (to Fauchelevent):
We'll give thanks for what is granted
What the sisters may ordain
Here we pray for new beginnings
Here our lives can start again
