Crying in the Chapel Songtext
von Elvis Presley with The Jordanaires

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 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 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

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
Then your burdens will be lighter
And you'll surely find the way
