Lyrics
There’s revival, and it’s spreading
Like a wildfire in my heart
Sunday morning, Hallelujah
And it’s lasting all week long
Can you hear it?
Can you feel it?
It’s the rhythm of a gospel song
Oh, once you choose it, you can lose it
There ain’t nothing, there ain’t nothing gonna steal my joy
I got an Old Church Choir singing in my soul
I got a sweet salvation and it’s beautiful
I’ve got a heart overflowing ’cause I’ve been restored
There ain’t nothing gonna steal my joy
No, there ain’t nothing gonna steal my joy
When the valleys that I wander
Turn to mountains that I can climb
Oh, you are with me, never leave me
Oh, ’cause there ain’t nothing, there ain’t nothing gonna steal my joy
I got an Old Church Choir singing in my soul
I got a sweet salvation and it’s beautiful
I’ve got a heart overflowing ’cause I’ve been restored
There ain’t nothing gonna steal my joy
No, there ain’t nothing gonna steel my joy
Clap your hands and stomp your feet
Till you find that gospel beat
‘Cause it’s all you’ll ever need, all you’ll ever need
Clap your hands and stomp your feet
Till you find that gospel beat
‘Cause it’s all you’ll ever need
All you’ll ever need
I’ve got an old church choir, singing in my soul
I got a sweet salvation, and it’s beautiful
I got an Old Church Choir singing in my soul
I got a sweet salvation and it’s beautiful
I’ve got a heart overflowing ’cause I’ve been restored
There ain’t nothing gonna steal my joy
No, there ain’t nothing gonna steal my joy
Oh, there ain’t nothing gonna steal my joy

About This Song
"In John 10:10, God wants us to have life abundantly and the enemy wants to steal, kill and destroy. Jeremiah 20 talks about how the fire that's burning outside is so bright and wants to jump out of you. My life verse is Jeremiah 29:11. My parents prayed that over me. Those are Bible passages that tie in for me personally relative to where some of the lyrics come from. For me, that's what the song is about. It's based on experiences I had as a kid and something I've thought about for a long time. God really got my attention with this idea that I've had an old church choir living in me this whole time helping me get through all of these things. In reality, it was God that was doing that in my heart. This song is about rejoicing and being filled with joy."
