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 (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 (knees and pray)
|
Your burdens will be lighter
|
And you'll surely find the way (and you'll surely find the way)
|
