A couple of weekends ago, I went to New York City. While I was there, I saw three Broadway shows. I really enjoyed all of the shows I saw, but I especially liked Amazing Grace. The music was powerful, the set was amazing, and the story was beautiful.
The musical is based on the life of John Newton, the man who wrote the song Amazing Grace. John Newton was an atheist slave trader who found God and eventually fought against slavery.
I'm having a hard time putting into words how I felt about this musical. Basically I just want to say, that if you make it up to NYC anytime soon, you should go and see this show. You won't regret it. It is a sad and beautiful and amazing story of redemption and love.
And if you need another reason to see the show, Josh Young, the man that played John Newton, has a beautiful and powerful voice. :)

I totally misread your last sentence as "John Newton is beautiful and powerful." And it made me totally want to see it. :)
