Nobody Cares

lyricist: Sherrard Beatty, 1915
Composer: Bentley Ackley

Nobody cares

said an out­cast one day;

My life has been ru­ined

I drift­ed away;

Entrapped by the ev­il one in­to his snares

Forsaken by all—no­bo­dy cares!

Nobody cares? That may have been true;

But wan­der­ing one

we are pray­ing for you;

O list to the sto­ry of love ev­er new;

Jesus

my Sav­ior

cares for you.

Nobody cares

said ano­ther in sin;

Since ev­ery­thing’s gone

who will now take me in?

My father’s for­got­ten me

mo­ther is gone

And no­bo­dy cares—I’m left alone.

Nobody cares

said a man in his cell;

I’m reap­ing the har­vest I’ve sown so well;

They say I’m a wreck

come

look now and see

There’s no­bo­dy cares for me

for me.

Come

bur­dened heart

with thy sin-la­den soul;

The Sav­ior is waiting to make thee whole;

Sweet rest He has pro­mised—His pro­mise is true

For God in His love car­eth for you.
