Wanda Jackson Lyrics
"Crying In The Chapel"

CRYING IN THE CHAPEL
Writer Artie Glenn

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
