Crying In The Chapel
Elvis Presley(엘비스 프레슬리) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The tears I shed were tears of joy
I know the meaning of contentment
I am happy with the Lord
Just a plain and simple chapel
Where all good people go to pray
I prayed the Lord that I'll grow stronger
I searched and I searched but I couldn't find
No way on earth to find 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 find 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 a way

You will look and probe, but you will never discover
No way on earth to find peace of mind
No strategy on this planet will bring you serenity of mind

Bring your burdens to the chapel
Get down on your knees and pray
Kneel down and communicate with God
Then your burdens will be lighter
Your problems will become less challenging
And you'll surely find a way
And undoubtedly, you will discover a solution
