If you sometimes cry out in the night 
And in the darkness you can't see the light 
You feel there's nothin' more to do 
You think all hope is gone for you 
And all you've wanted was peace of mind 

Your pursuit of happiness has robbed ya, robbed ya blind 
Just remember what you heard before 
When your heart of stone becomes an open open open door 
There's peace in the presence of the Lord 
You will find it there 
Take His hand, He will lead ya to the joy 
You will find it there 

I searched this land from shore to shore 
My quest for self it don't mean that much anymore no no 

In this path that I have taken 
Ooo so many times I've been forsaken 
And all my dreams that have been shattered 
Have caused me to see what really matters 
Just remember what you heard before 
When your heart of stone becomes an open door 

Ooo there's peace in the presence of the Lord 
You will find it, you will find it there 
Take His hand, He will lead you to the joy 
You will find it there 
There's peace, peace in the presence of the Lord 
You will find it there 
Just take His hand, He will lead you to the joy 
Oh you will find it there, you will find it there 
There's peace, peace in the presence, presence of the Lord
