BTW, reading your party setup it looks like you might need to fill in for the healer as well.  There's a good number of conditions that get thrown around at those levels a cleric would have to deal with as well as stand-up healign in combat and boosting out-of-combat healing (which you do slightly with Song of Rest).  Using your action to cast healing isn't as bad when you're also maintaining concentration on a great cc or debuff and would be limited to non-concentration spells anyhow.  As a magical secret, Paladin's Aura of Vitality is a great out-of-combat healing the cleric which they had.</blockquote>
