Candlelight processional - shout for joy lyrics?

[happypooh]

Not sure where to post this but was wondering if someone could help me find the lyrics/song music for Shout to Joy which is one of the first songs sung in the CP...we went to the CP for the first time this past week and loved the whole program! Well worth the CP package (we had the DDP so that helped too!) and surprisingly my 23 month old son loved it too! It was hilarious actually as after the program when we would talk about the music and the orchestra he would burst into multiple high pitched screams as if he were trying to sing really really loud! Also funny was the narrator said "I love being back here at the Magic Kingdom," - we laughed as we thought he must have been joking and known that he was at Epcot - but no one else laughed so I do hope he did know where he was!

Shout for joy! Lift your voice! Sing a song! To our God! Shout for joy! And rejoice! Sing His praise! All the earth!!/Burst into jubilant song with music,Crash the cymbal,blow the horn. Praise the Lord in all His glory,Sing a new song in His name. (Repeat Shout for Joy)

Thanks so much! Do you happen to know the author/composer?? I think I'm going to have to buy the CD...does anyone know if the stores at downtown disney have it? Or just in Epcot?

I bought a copy at the airport as I was headed home I also saw it in the resort gift shops, so I am willing to bet it is also at Downtown Disney. The CD has a pamplet that includes the words to all songs included, and dialog.

Ooh, didn' know there was a CD! How much is it, and is the narrator on the CD a celeb?

The CD currently out has Phylicia Rashad as narrator. I think it's time to update it,with maybe Jim Caviezel as the narrator.

The album lists it as being written and arranged (don't know the difference) by Ted Ricketts and Derric Johnson. Both seem to work for/with Disney. Ted Ricketts works with American Vybe (I think he produced their album) and also worked on Pirates. Mr. Johnson directs the Voices of Liberty. He's also an ordained minister.
