Crying in the Chapel (1953) |
You saw me crying in the chapel |
The tears I shed were tears of joy |
I know the meaning of contentment |
Now I am happy with the Lord |
Just a plain and simple chapel |
Where humble people go to pray |
I pray the Lord that I’ll grow stronger |
As I live from day to day |
I’ve searched and I’ve searched |
But I couldn’t find |
No way on earth |
To gain peace of mind |
Now I’m happy in the chapel |
Where people are of one accord |
We gather in the chapel |
Just to sing and praise the Lord |
Ev’ry sinner looks for something |
That will put his heart at ease |
There is only one true answer |
He must get down on his knees |
Meet your neighbor in the chapel |
Join with him in tears of joy |
You’ll know the meaning of contentment |
Then you’ll be happy with the Lord |
You’ll search and you’ll search |
But you’ll never find |
No way on earth |
To gain peace of mind |
Take your troubles to the chapel |
Get down on your knees and pray |
Your burdens will be lighter |
And you’ll surely find the way |
