Rex Allen - Crying in the Chapel lyrics

rate me

You saw me crying in the chapel

The tears I shed were tears of joy

I know the meaning of contentment

I am happy with the Lord.

Just a plain and simple chapel

Where all good people go to pray

I prayed the Lord that I'll grow stronger

As I live from day to day.

I searched and I searched but I couldn't find

No way on earth to find peace of mind.

Now I'm happy in the chapel

Where people are of one accord

Yes, we gather in the chapel

Just to sing and praise the Lord.

You'll search and you'll search but you'll never find

No way on earth to find peace of mind.

Take your troubles to the chapel

Get down on your knees and pray

Then your burdens will be lighter

And you'll surely find a way...
