Click the links to go to the YouTube Video for the song. Sometimes there are ads, if it really bothers you, there are numerous adblocking plugins for desktop, and browser apps for mobile.
The full playlist is available here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLpneJsRvychR2KeUuv0FE0KDOrhz69P5q (The Billings and Barber will play the whole thing, so note the times to start).
You can change the speed on YouTube videos and it does not change the pitch. Click the Gear icon on the video, select speed, and you can pull it down to 75% or 50% to work out tricky bits.

Regina coeli laetare, Alleluia. Queen of Heaven, rejoice, alleluia.
Quia quem meruisti portare, Alleluia. For He whom you were worthy to bear, alleluia.
[Iam] Resurrexit sicut dixit, Alleluia. [Now] has risen, as He said, alleluia.
Ora pro nobis Deum. Alleluia. Pray for us to God, alleluia.

Laß dich nur nichts nicht dauren mit Trauren,
sei stille, wie Gott es fügt,
so sei vergnügt mein Wille!
Was willst du heute sorgen auf morgen?
Der Eine steht allem für,
der gibt auch dir das Deine.
Sei nur in allem Handel ohn Wandel,
steh feste, was Gott beschleußt,
das ist und heißt das Beste.
Amen.
Do not be sorrowful or regretful;
Be calm, as God has ordained,
and thus my will shall be content.
What do you want to worry about from day to day?
There is One who stands above all
who gives you, too, what is yours.
Only be steadfast in all you do,
stand firm; what God has decided,
that is and must be the best.
Amen
