Crying In The Chapel
Mahalia Jackson
Continues after the ad
You saw me crying in the chapel the tears I shed were tears of joy
I know the meaning of contentment now I'm 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
Yes we gather in the chapel just to sing and praise the Lord
Continues after the ad
You'll search and you'll search but you'll never find
No way on earth to gain peace of mind
Take your troubles in the chapel get down on your knees and pray
Then your burdens will be lighter and you'll surely find the way
(And you'll surely find the way)
