Crying In The Chapel
Buck Owens
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
Every 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
