Crying in the Chapel
Finding Serenity in the Chapel: A Joyful Journey with Aaron Neville
Lyrics
You saw me crying in the chapel,
You observed me experiencing strong emotions of sadness and vulnerability in the chapel.
Tears I shed were tears of joy,
The tears I cried were not of sorrow but of happiness and fulfillment.
I know the meaning of contentment,
I understand the true sense of satisfaction and peace.
I am happy with the Lord
I find joy and contentment in my connection with the Lord.
Just a plain and simple chapel,
Describing a simple chapel, a place where virtuous individuals gather to pray.
Where all good people go to pray,
It is a place where good people come together to communicate with the divine.
I pray the Lord that I'll grow stronger,
I beseech the Lord for strength and personal growth in my daily life.
As I live from day to day
Expressing a desire for spiritual strength in the daily journey of life.
I've searched, and I've searched,
Despite searching extensively, I couldn't find...
But I couldn't find
...anywhere on earth a source of peace of mind.
Nowhere on earth to find peace of mind,
There is no place on earth that provides tranquility for the mind.
Now I'm happy in the chapel,
Now, I have found happiness in the chapel.
Where people are of one heart,
Where individuals share a common heart and spirit.
Yes we gather in the chapel,
Yes, we come together in the chapel...
Just to sing and praise the Lord
...solely to sing and offer praise to the Lord.
You'll search and you'll search
You will search extensively...
But you never find,
...but will not find on earth a place that brings peace of mind.
Nowhere on earth to find peace of mind,
Reiterating the absence of a place on earth for peace of mind.
Take your troubles to the chapel,
Encouraging to take troubles to the chapel...
Get down on your knees and pray,
...and through prayer while on your knees...
Then your burdens will be lightened,
...you will find relief from burdens, and they will be lightened.
And you'll surely find the way.
Ultimately, you will discover the right path through prayer.
