The Color Purple (Reprise) Lyrics by The Color Purple Broadway Cast

The Color Purple (2015 Broadway Cast Recording)

2016

[Celie]
Dear God, dear stars, dear trees, dear sky
Dear peoples, dear everything
Dear God
God is inside me and everyone else
That was or ever will be
I came into this world with God
And when I finally looked inside
I found it
Just as close as my breath is to me
[Company]
Rising (rising) (rising)
Like the sun
Is the hope that sets us free
[Celie]
Your heartbeat
Make my heart beat
[Celie & Congregation]
When we share love
Like a plate of corn
Like a honeybee
Like a waterfall
All a part of me
Like the color purple
Where do it come from?
Now my eyes are open
Look what God has done
[Company] [(Celie)]
It take a grain of love (grain of love)
To make a mighty tree (mighty tree)
Even the smallest voice (smallest voice)
Can make a harmony (harmony)
Like a drop of water (drop of water)
In the river high (river high)
There are miracles (there are miracles)
For you and I (For you, and you and I)
Like a plate of corn (like a plate of corn)
Like a honeybee (like a honeybee)
Like a waterfall
All a part of me (all a part of me, yeah)
Like the color purple (like the color purple)
Where do it come from (where do it come from)
Now my eyes are open (my eyes are open)
[Celie & Company]
Look what God has done
[Celie]
I don't think us feel old at all
I think this is the youngest us ever felt, yes
[Celie & Company]
Amen
