Given a list of unique colour names as input, sort them in the order that they first appear in Joseph's Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat.

The full list of colours, in order, is:
1. red
2. yellow
3. green
4. brown
5. scarlet
6. black
7. ochre
8. peach
9. ruby
10. olive

22. lemon
23. russet
24. grey
25. purple
26. white
27. pink

Or as an array of strings:
["red","yellow","green","brown","scarlet","black","ochre","peach","ruby","olive","violet","fawn","lilac","gold","chocolate","mauve","cream","crimson","silver","rose","azure","lemon","russet","grey","purple","white","pink","orange","blue"]
Rules
- You may take input by any reasonable, convenient means (e.g., an array of strings, a delimited string, individual strings), but please specify your input method in your answer.
- You may do the same for your output.
- The input will only ever contain colours from the above list.
- Your solution should be able to handle empty inputs.
- You may choose whether all words in the input are consistently uppercase, lowercase or title case but your output's casing must match your input's.
- This is code-golf so lowest byte count in each language wins.
- As always, standard loopholes are forbidden.
