In the Chapel Lyrics by Original Broadway Cast of Violet

Violet (Original Broadway Cast Recording)

2014

[VIOLET]
This is where the preacher stands
No one's left to testify for me
All I have are your words, Lord
To raise me up and set me free
(spoken)
Lazarus. The withered hand. The ear of Malchus. The woman at the door of Peter's house. The healing pool of Bethesda. "The crooked shall be made straight."
[PREACHER, spoken]
Isaiah was talking about a valley, not a scar. What are you doing in my chapel?
[VIOLET, spoken]
I need your help. 
[PREACHER, spoken]
So many people do, sister. But right now I'm exhausted. Come back another time. You got to go on home. 
[VIOLET, spoken]
I can't, not tonight. I came here all the way from North Carolina on a Greyhound bus!
[PREACHER, spoken]
What do people think, I'm a healing jukebox? You drop a quarter in me and watch me go? Come to the service tomorrow, sister, like everybody else. 
[VIOLET, spoken]
Well which is it, a service, or a TV show?
[PREACHER, spoken]
I'm sorry, but there's nothing really wrong with you. 
[VIOLET, spoken]
Maybe it's vain to worry you're ugly, but if you're worse than ugly? If you're disfigured! That's not vanity, that's pain, pure and simple. 
[PREACHER, spoken]
But sister, your scar is already healed though, right? It's not going anywhere. You need to make your peace with that.
