Lang-Sims had a strong interest in spiritual matters, which was exhibited in a number of books which she published over a series of decades from One Thing Only: A Christian Guide to the Universal Quest for God, to The presence of Tibet in 1963 and Canterbury Cathedral in 1979. She also had a brief friendship with the writer Charles Williams whose letters to her were published as Letters to Lalage in 1989.
