Nothing There to Love Lyrics by Christopher Smith

Amazing Grace (Original Broadway Cast Recording)

2016

[JOHN]
I was such a lost and restless soul
Trying hard to build a life that I could control
No one ever saw the loneliness I held inside
And the more I try to show my best, the more I had to hide
But somewhere in the darkness, you were there
And you listened to my music when the world didn't care
You're the only one who saw beyond the things I've done
You helped me see a vision of the man I could become
Now this this my song for the one who loved me when
There was nothing there to love
And this is my anthem to the one who prayed
Someday I would rise above
[JOHN & MARY]
Somewhere in your eyes, I could see beyond my sorrows
[JOHN, spoken]
I can't believe you waited for me
[MARY, spoken]
I can't believe you took so long
[MARY]
Now wherever life may lead
[JOHN]
There's a future I can see
[JOHN & MARY]
And I can face it all if you will walk with me
[MARY]
There's a future
[JOHN & MARY]
I can face it all if you will walk with me
[NARRATOR, spoken]
John and mary were wedded in Chatham and spent the rest of their life together. The story of John's transformation inspired generations of abolitionists. The joy of John's music returned to him and he wrote over two hundred songs and hymns. Just before Christmas, 1772, he completed the words to this simple song of gratitude
