Crying in the Chapel
Finding Serenity in the Chapel: A Joyful Journey with Sonny Til & the Orioles
Lyrics
You saw me crying in the chapel
You witnessed me crying in the chapel.
The tears I shed were tears of joy
The tears I cried were tears of joy.
I know the meaning of contentment
I understand the true meaning of contentment.
I am happy with the Lord
I am content and happy in my connection with the Lord.
Just a plain and simple chapel
Describing a simple chapel where good people gather to pray.
Where all good people go to pray
It's a place where people of virtue come together in prayer.
I prayed the Lord that I'll grow stronger
I prayed to the Lord for strength and growth in my daily life.
As I live from day to day
Expressing a desire to become stronger in faith day by day.
I searched and I searched but I couldn't find
I searched extensively but couldn't find a way to attain peace of mind.
No way on earth to find peace of mind
Emphasizing the difficulty in finding inner peace on Earth.
Now I'm happy in the chapel
Currently experiencing happiness in the chapel.
Where people are of one accord
Where people are united and in agreement with each other.
Yes, we gather in the chapel
Depicting the act of gathering in the chapel.
Just to sing and praise the Lord
Gathering to sing and praise the Lord together.
You'll search and you'll search but you'll never find
Others will search extensively but won't find a way to peace of mind.
No way on earth to find peace of mind
Reiterating the challenge of finding inner peace on Earth.
Take your troubles to the chapel
Encouraging others to take their troubles to the chapel.
Get down on your knees and pray
Advising to kneel and pray in seeking solace.
Then your burdens will be lighter
Assuring that burdens will become lighter through prayer.
And you'll surely find a way
Believing that a solution or way will be found through prayer.
