Jerry, the song I posted says it's by B.F. White. I'm pretty sure I heard the chorus long before I ever even heard of the Sacred Harp, though. Just compare the tenor part of the chorus to what you've heard.

Most of the other 'joy' type songs I can think of are from Sunday School.
"If you're happy & you know it"
"I've got the joy, joy, joy, joy, down in my heart"

Now, I'm going to listen to Verdi's Requiem. Dies irae, dies illa!
