Joy In The Camp

Verse 1
For years I traveled down a
Long and lonely road,
Sorrow and pain my lot to bear,
But then I met the Christ
Who took my heavy load,
And since then I hear singing in the air.

Chorus
There's joy in the camp,
A sinner has come home,
There's joy in the camp,
Rejoicing 'round the throne,
Singing and shouting
The great redemption song;
Out of the darkness into the light,
Out of my blindness to jubilant sight,
Out of my sorrow to heaven so bright,
There's joy, wondrous joy in the camp!

Verse 2
The angels in heaven
Are rejoicing 'round the throne,
Filling the lofts with chords so grand;
They're singing because
Of one lost sheep who just came home,
I know there must be joy in the camp.

Chorus
There's joy in the camp,
A sinner has come home,
There's joy in the camp,
Rejoicing 'round the throne,
Singing and shouting
The great redemption song;
Out of the darkness into the light,
Out of my blindness to jubilant sight,
Out of my sorrow to heaven so bright,
There's joy, wondrous joy in the camp!

There's joy in the camp,
A sinner has come home,
There's joy in the camp,
Rejoicing 'round the throne,
Singing and shouting
The great redemption song;
Out of the darkness into the light,
Out of my blindness to jubilant sight,
Out of my sorrow to heaven so bright,
There's joy, wondrous joy in the camp!

This is a great song. Our choir songs it often.
